there was a moment
by a tree
Adam made a decision
and was no longer enfolded in God
in the chill of his sudden nakedness
he searched for fig leaves
there was another moment
by a tree
Mary stood
and watched her son
enfolded in the sins of the world
my sins
he too felt the chill of the absence of God
but did not search for fig leaves
interesting
to me in any case
that it was a fig tree
in full leaf
that Jesus caused to wither at the root
it's too easy to reach for fig leaves
