And Adam said he would prefer
To be alone,
Anaesthetised on god’s table
Before the operation,
But the drugs had conquered
Their first brain,
And sleep and surgery followed,
With poor Adam hollowed
So soon after having been
Approved.
Shortly god’s soft voice woke him,
But Adam felt just half a man,
And as he was left alone
To convalesce,
He didn’t know that it would be
For the very last time.
That morning his visitor
Arrived,
A small girl, and he called
Her Company, because she
Was not at the head of him,
Nor at the foot,
But was taken in his sleep,
Straight out of his middle.
