An apple is bitten into and suddenly the moral compass joins in the cosmic struggle, pitted against good and evil, dark and light
And two halves of a whole are cast from a Garden; like a bad apple rotting with worms, as if a mere reminder of a serpent
Snow White bites an apple and falls asleep for seemingly an eternity
Oh how bittersweet
Meanwhile in the world; some people are baking apple pies, bobbing for apples, a munchin' and a crunchin' while drinking apple cider; life goes on
If only we could learn to partake in the knowledge Isaac Newton gained, when an apple fell from a tree
And gravitate toward spreading seeds of knowledge around like Johnny Appleseed did with the apple
Enriching Humanities lives liken 'rich caramel over crisp apples'
For knowledge bears the fruit of cognition and is intangible, non-perishable
Simply doing everyday acts of goodness, can leave a sweet lasting legacy long afterwards
However; knowledge pries the eyes wide open and gets to the core of the world's problems
Peels away the separateness illusion to realize we are all one; flesh and blood, bits and bytes, beating in tune to the rhythm of the Uni-verse
One heart beat, one algorithm at a time.
