"A Taste"

Of the forbidden fruit, the first bite is so sweet
Although you’re hesitant to take it
But once you open wide and take the plunge
The second bite is easier to make
And you find it’s just as sweet as the first.
Eventually you finish the forbidden fruit
But now you have a taste for its sweetness
It’s difficult to go without the flavor
Now that you know it exist
You carefully look for the next perfect pick
So you can once again taste the sweet juices of excess.
