Fall of Man

Skinned from Eden, man, reveal 

Yourself to me - I the earthly

Spirit; he who beckons thee!

 

Spirit-shaped son of mud,

Stardust shadow born of death;

Down the dew of Eden, march

T\'wards the gate of gates!

 

But, alas, serpent wed, your mistress

Savours the fruit of gods; wisdom

Most forbidden plagues mankind\'s heart!

 

To be finished.
