In The Garden of Eden
I wanted to be touched
The worst part about God reaching inside of you and rummaging around is that he won’t do it again.
Adam, the first man, understood this,
God prodding into his ribs for something to take.
Such violation—
The universe is touching you and you have no recourse—
But the worst part, isn’t that your organs are being parsed over like fruits—no, poor Adam, the worst part is the first time is the last time,
Lie to me, please,
Touch me and make me feel like a person.
