Ezra Vancil Poet I do not know?

Adam's Apple

What were you thinking, 
that night
Do you not remember,
 have no sight
Of kindness 
youth, 
sensitivities
dark rooms where you became of me

To joke of things, 
under sheets
As if the years, 
void, complete
wrapped up in, 
a iron shield
have you no heart to yield

For other men, 
they’re atmosphere
You thought, 
I’d laugh, or would I fear

Equate 
Size
Width
Strength

Was that the proof of years? …You think?

To finally come to flesh, 
the end 
of insecure
defense of sin

I thought of what you said that night
No shame, 
in your 
passage right

then Adam took fruit from tree
unpure
he felt alive
and free
