The Last Dispensation
Bespoke dust--a rib removed
and Adam choked on paradiseas Eve fell from favor; eyes open.
Knowledge is death.
The will of man confounded
and common speech confusedby an angry god; alas Shinar.

like the temple curtainat the last exhale; my God.
It is finished.
Two thousand years of grace
covered the lower groundof man’s last temple; Manhattan.
Allah Akbar.
A Mayan switch waits patiently,
oblivious to God, Babel and Allah,to laws, grace and man; the dust calls
