+--------Taylor Swift and Tony Conti; Adam and Eve In 2016
Taylor I wish I could go
back with you to where it
all began, the quintessence
of expectation and longing sated,
of love –pure- in a paradisiac
garden, soft skin of lips touching
soft skin of lips, ankle deep
in an eternal stream of ecstasy,
Man and Woman both enfolded
in the reassuring arms of a divine
breeze. I wish this was us. Before
slithering notions of heartbreak,
before lies of inferiority dangled fork-
tongued and stolid from a rotted tree
of dumb girls’ romantic rejection,
peddling to me rancid fruit of sorrow
that should’ve remained forbidden
forever. I would cup your chin in
my hands and whisper to your soul
“Taylor Swift – flesh of my flesh…
bone of my bone….always” softly.
----Genesis 2:18-25
Then the LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him.” Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called a living creature, that was its name. The man gave names to all the cattle, and to the birds of the sky, and to every beast of the field, but for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him. So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that place. The LORD God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.
The man said,
“This is now bone of my bones,
And flesh of my flesh;
She shall be called Woman,
Because she was taken out of Man.”
For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh. And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.
