Through universal element of love
mindless atoms swirl into galaxies
that weave stars from aggressive fantasy,
then nurture planets blooming ghosts of faith
in spiral coil of genes which replicates
new bodies that evolve from fish to god.
Stuck in this body of frail mortal flesh,
as long as chemicals of this lithe form
function through interaction of bright sparks,
I maintain forward motion through desire
to find tree of knowledge with fruit of life
which animates my conscious heart with love.
Ninth Adam, son of Amen and Adad,
breathes gusting air of hope to swell his soul,
then stands on wobbling legs of frantic fear
and stares at giant dragon with gold eyes
that chews bodies of his tribe dripping blood,
and howls with terrible rage of despair.
Wrenching long brass wand with sharp jagged spikes,
that cooled from lava flow at dawn of time,
Ninth Adam rushes forward on fierce legs
and batters face of the dragon with blows
of brave aggression writhing from his heart
till shrieking dragon stumbles to escape.
Tracking bloody steps of the sharp-toothed beast,
Ninth Adam finds in small cave by the lake
wounded dragon cowering in stark fear,
so he bashes its head with lightning strikes
that crushes its skull into bloodied mush,
till he lies exhausted under mute stars.
Hauling wagon with dragon and its eggs,
Ninth Adam enters gates of paradise
where Inanna hosts rites of victory
as Eloh roasts meat on high ziggurat
that feeds five thousand people of the town
who praise dragon-slayer with joyous hymns.
Enrobed with leather cape from dragon skin,
Ninth Adam presides on the judgment throne
to reign as noble guard of paradise,
while Ninshubur bears children of his seed,
then trains his son Zababa to wield spear
as hunter who slays dragons of the sea.
"Through universal element of love,
that fuels our bodies with star energy,"
Ninth Adam explains to his fierce-eyed son,
"we fight evil dragons who eat our minds
so we may generate bodies of flesh
that preserve immortal soul of our hearts."

Orpheus explores ancient ziggurat in crumbling walls of paradise where he finds large skeleton of a dragon in the long-abandoned temple of dead gods.
