Analysis of Tree Of Knowledge
These eyes do see
You observe me
The looking tree
Is breaking free
I have the seed
For those in need
But please take heed
The devils feed
We are here
Here is now
No need to fear
Under your brow
Here is my light
For it is night
Now i shall give
My gift of sight
A child is born
There minds adorn
When will they mourn
Their lives forsworn
So let them dream
This perfect scheme
Ibrahim
Said on a ream
So don't be stressed
On wisdoms quest
When you've oppressed
Your day of rest.
