+-----I Have Risen; Jesus' Thoughts After Leaving His Tomb

          Before I left for earth, I recall
my Father and I on Mount Zion’s
promontory. Breathing deeply,
closing our eyes. The linchpin
of our talk- Archetypes.
The snake, dangling fork-tongued,
stolid peddling perdition
from a tree, verboten to man.
Later me bloody, peddling paradise
nailed, dying, from a tree
verboten to God. And the two Eves-
one departing disgraced, the other
gracing Eden exalted. And the two
Adams – the first felled by death.
The last, conquering it
for all sinners' redeeming. I told my
Father – “yes, I will go. And yes.
I will come back for you. Victorious”

------Mark 16:1-8
When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?” But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.’” Trembling and bewildered, the women went out and fled from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.
