Adam Poem by Theodore Zendarski

Adam



Arisen from dust, life into me thrust
a copy to behold, from the best mold
at first alone, now with one from my own
destiny unknown, a garden our home
avoid but one tree, or loose eternity
deception has won, what have I done
caught in a lie, my descendants will die
but pity has shone, a new shoot has grown
my error cost dear, the accusers draw near
now naked I flee, to avoid death on a tree

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The following verse from scripture has been
interpreted many ways.

Mark 14: 51
A young man, wearing nothing but a linen garment,
was following Jesus. When they seized him,
he fled naked, leaving his garment behind.

Could it be that the young man was indeed Adam,
once again hurrying off to hide knowing that he
was responsible for what was to happen to Jesus?
