Why Blame Adam?

each to his grave...
it's the doings made
for the liar his speech of blame
accrue;
why blame Adam?

each in his seat recline
in bliss or torment earned
in melancholy remorse
or in peaceful repose;
why blame Adam?

it's the look
that stains the sight
the picture skewed
to the devil's delight
the immoral
becomes a matter
beyond reproach
and the deceived sponsor
the fraudster's case;
why blame Adam?
