If His Were the Only Tree (poem)

in the Garden
if they must forthwith still
taste of some tree
in search

of knowledge of

good
and evil, then let
them eat of my Son

the Fruit of the tree of Jesse
from whom He depends, ever
for their desire

because

He let Himself be hung there
as if out to dry
so that they
might later partake
of His dehydrated body
and
His unleavened blood
so as to have

the Knowledge

of Whom
it thenceforth hath been said
He is

the Apple of His Father's eye
