As i look up in the tree; i see an apple staring back at me.
I take a stick to knock it down;
As straight as an arrow it hits me in the crown.
Laying on ground eyes filled with tears;
I look to sky and realize my fears.
A voice booms down aimed straight me;
"I TOLD YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM THAT APPLE TREE!"
What do you think? Pretty good huh? Peace.

You skipped the part about it all being Eve's fault

I do appreciate the time you took to compose this but you should know that Genesis does not mention an apple but only the fruit of the `Tree of Knowledge`

The tree of knowledge of good and evil is not an apple tree, but Satan. Apple is no where written in Genesis.
They ate (assimilated or consumed knowledge) from the tree of knowledge of good and evil (Satan).
That's why God said;
Gen 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
We all must eat (assimilate or consume knowledge) of the tree of life (Jesus Christ), to live for ever.

I won't comment on it's value as verse (I've seen worse on the internet), but theologically it's monstrous.
