Terza Rima Practice
On a dark beach,
the waves roll in,
the water, up to me, tries to reach.
I feel like it has washed away my sin.
I am not christian but maybe,
I hope that one day feel this will my kin.
Near the beach there is a tree,
whose forbidden fruit speaks of much,
Take a bite and you'll see.
Future, present, and past try to pass here, but alas,
passing through here requires innocence; the past is bloody, the future more so; for the present, with bad deeds we are tasked.
