Before the Beginning

The multiverse, a flexible contraption,
so God's inclined to let it do its thing,
explore the most impractical of options
and strum each strange and quirky cosmic string.

There's one where Eve refused to bite the apple,
no matter the reward or provocation;
makes Satan and the angels try and grapple
with each divine, immaculate gestation.

If there's no bite -- is there no good or evil,
cognition a prerequisite of sorts,
or are these forces integral, primeval
predating Hell and Heaven and their courts?

As Eve and Adam frolic without sin,
their world awaits its signal to begin.
