A dream of pears
In a garden of Eden
Could the one half-eaten
Be Adam’s?

And in the foliage
The child’s grey jacket
A hoodie, size 8
Who left it behind?

The slender pink book
Falls from numb fingers
Can knowledge
Blind the eyes?

The forefoot
A blade edge
The foot leads
Will the rest follow?

I don’t understand.
Understanding
Unecessary
Just take another step forward…
