a story of creation, pt. 3

Of God-talk, the center, the crest of nature
and the peak of Holy Writ;
the eldest of God's work
and the final priest.

Adam introduced death, for life, yearning,
trading nourishment for fruit.
In order to die, arriving,
the Son revoked first-man's curse,
seeking death but life, finding.

Sleeping with his mighty act,
then, living for all his own,
the New King called ground sky and dark light,
raising after falling.
