The Birth of Eve

The Birth of Eve
by Judith Huang

You, and you alone
can lock the box
of my death -

You, and you alone
can put your mouth
to my breast -

You, and you alone
can part my lips
with your fingertips -

O God
O God
Adam is dead
O God Adam is dead
And there are only
blackened birds all here
Instead.

on the doors of Cathedral at Monreale, Sicily

leaving eden

by Judith Huang

because when you held my hand
it was by the wrist,
so i could never let you go -
and so,
we would walk on,
together forever,
a man, a woman,
and my poor arm
the snake,
dripping venom
into the sand
for every step we take -
