Original Sin

Today I followed a prompt to write a poem that "follows the beats of a classic joke." I'm not sure I succeeded or even understood the prompt, but here is my attempt at it.

Original Sin
By Candace Shultz

Knock Knock.

        - The door is locked.

Who's there?

        - Say a prayer.

Original sin.

        - Don't let it in!

Original sin who?

        - Don't be a fool!

Would you like some fruit?

        - Stay resolute.
