Out of His Side Came Forth Life

Yaldabaoth, the lion, ripped open Adam’s side 
Divine life busted out of his bleeding hole 
The mother of life flowed out and became his guide 
Through this first divorce, death swallowed mankind whole 

A roman soldier pierced Jesus’s side 
Flaming blood busted out of his bleeding soul 
Living waters flowed out with arms open wide 
Through this death, life met Adam again to console
