~ The Fall from Grace ~

 

…and so, mankind’s downfall comes not from his discovery of knowledge...

...but from within that knowledge.

 

Losing his divinity...the gift from the Gods...

...he proves wrong the Great Mystery that is our soul.

 

Explaining it all away with a touch, a smell…his visions...

...humility becomes arrogance… reverence into insolence.

 

In all, man has not lost his humanity...

but unfortunately…has found it, and embraced it.
