Adam and Eve: Supposing Eve and Paris, prince of Troy, went off with their apples (arguing over whose was most delicious), leaving God, the Serpent, Adam, Helen, the three godesses and the heavenly gateway angels all fuming under the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil....

About Me
- Christine
- I'm scrabbling at the sand again. I pray:Waves! be Kind! Don't suck me down like a piece of spaghetti. I pray for firm footing, Hands free at last Of this gritty softness. I wish I could be a fish, Silver, swooping with the shoal, And not so bent on being upright. Sloshing between here and there, With here so hard to hold. Always facing belonging Without knowing what's needed. But I am angry. This flotsam life, grudging, makes me rage. Those well-oiled door-keepers, They hate the sand. And I never give up Jamming my crampons Into that shifting here.
