Adamnotized

Adamnotized

Iyan Igma

“My, God, What are they wearing,
And what have they done with the trees?
How many Eves are walking by?
Can’t you explain what’s happening here, please?

I don’t recall naming these creatures;
Though they honk sure enough like geese
I see they’ve digested people
And have the stench of some strange disease!

Don’t let one get me! It charges
Like a rhino that needs to go pee!
I’m sure it’s more deadly than the fruit
Of that one forbidden true.

They’re mad, for they talk to themselves,
And a tentacle wraps their ear!
What do you mean I am naked?
You act like it’s something I fear!

How on earth could you not know me?
Count the ribs, ’cause I’m Adam, chum.
I’m pleased to meet you, Officer.
From where in heaven do you come?

Who are you that tugs on my arm?
When did you hypnotize me and how?
Officer, this—who are you?—therapist
Is crazy; I’ve not seen him before now.

Rorschachs: Dramatic Verse and Somber, Twisted Tales

Bananas

Bananas
by
Iyan Igma

It is generally recognized by scholars that bananas are the source of all evil. Their imperfect creation, for they contained strings, led the most mighty Lucifer to delusions of adequacy. As a few of us have been imparted with the knowledge of what next happened, it becomes of the utmost importance to speak no more of Satan’s fall but of Eve and Adam. Eve was in a garden and had just been quite let down by a banana, or, more specifically, its strings. Lucifer, sensing an opening, was apt to proffer the apple, as it is commonly acknowledged subconsciously. The apple was a most perfect and stringless fruit; the desire for perfection outweighed a trespass against God’s commandment.
Modestly do I propose to end the terrors of this world through that plan which I shall now disclose. Petitioning of Our Lord God Almighty should commence immediately. He cannot easily ignore the cries of the troubled. Like any ruler, He derives His power from the popular and sovereign common folks. Working in prayer together shall we convince Him to scrap the world and all other planes, start anew from scratch, and this time create a perfect banana. After all, one mayst do anything in faith.

Bananas Re-visited

It seems that only scholars and infants are in possession of capabilities enough to understand that bananas are the source of all evil. “Evil,” what is associated with this? Surely the fall of Lucifer. On the seventh day while God yet rested, Lucifer was exploring heaven in all of His glory. The Lord had seen good in all things, and, indeed, the bananas were good but yet imperfect. The tiny strings inside were revealed to Satan. Lucifer, as he was then called, was taken with wild fantasies upon learning of this fault in creation. Bananas were indeed the inspiration, and, as such, are the root of all evil.

Adam et Eve

Adam et Eve
by
Iyan Igma

He’s unsure how to act
Should he continue or stop
Confused he’s thinking too much a lot.

He must get back to her
This much is true
Should he continue or stop. . . what to do?

At a dilemma point of his life
To disappoint or disobey
But he keeps thinking and thinking
With naught yet to say.

You No Be Existing

You No Be Existing
by
Iyan Igma

If I could go back in time,
None of you would exist.
We’d all disappear as dust
Under a crushing, mighty fist.

A continent of time I’d traverse,
Over the divide four thousand more years
To an Aden where His presence made
The mighty rivers weep joyous tears.

When the serpent is spotted entering,
The first murder would occur;
Not that of the future Abel
But of the musical Lucifer.

The fruit being untouched, innocence
Would still be Adam and Eve.
We the punishment would not
Have being. That’s what I believe.

Adam's Rib

Adam’s Rib
by
Iyan Igma

The fifth day commenced
With Adam’s creation.
After a while he grew weary
Of his lonesome situation.

Man was left to
Name and command
The creatures of creation
As his own personal nation.

Whilst one may speak to animals,
They cannot reply back to you.
Adam noticed this deficiency;
God noted this, too.

During sleep a rib was removed
To create the first female.
Adam could feel this completion
As if it were Braille.

Now because of this rib
Removed from his chest,
Man only feels complete with
What was completed during rest.
