What If Adam, and Eve were NOT the First?

Note: This is a fictional hypothetical account, and no way shape or form, is it meant to be an infringement of any given person's religious beliefs. This is the first selection, one of many, detailing the experiences of such a couple. In this first scene...man is introduced to, "woman" for the first time; his mind could not comprehend the purity of what befell his eyes (love at first sight). Without further ado, I present:

The First Man: ... And The Woman That Did Care....

Tethered, and bondage bound,

T0 that of the Tree of Wisdom:

Of both Good...and Evil.

The very source of all that was,

or that ever could be.

Buried, and forgotten by the weight of the worlds that it did govern...

Furthermore,

maddening with insanity,

his mind still breaking.

No ball and chain...

No dwelling made of man ever dreamed,

or conceived could contain,

nor capture the true inner workings of a man:

When first he did bear witness to the creation of woman!

His soul on fire,

wrought by the fruit stolen of The God's...:

His very being torn of itself,

given to freewill,

and taken to flight!

Feared to be damned in the sight of the mother...,

As breath of life gave way to beauty,

the world of man still in its infancy.

Marred and scarred by the endless potential unrestrained,

and withholding of no end.

Beauty bore her name!

Words brought about no justice to meaning,

or adequate description of truth.

The Angels wept in envy:

Swallowed whole,

by the very miracle of being made evident in that,

that was the breath that filled her lungs with most precious life!

Shackled, and chained;

a slave to perfection.

Her eyes!

...and within them held the home of all that was true and pure.

Proof of divinity,

and holy creation sprout to life,

standing firm and in the present.

Grounded by two bare feet.........................

AND BEAUTY BORE HER NAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
