 Weathered
Eden

Mel Waldman

    In a dark dream of illumination, a widower traveled to Eden and found Adam and Eve lying naked near the Tree of Life. Adam slept peacefully, but within his tranquil dream a tempest was approaching. Eve was awake and gazed quizzically at the Heavens, discovering, perhaps, something or someone of interest from a distant universe.
    A snake slithered to Eve as the bereaved man’s bewildered mind whirled and swirled in a state of vertigo. Intoxicated with anticipation, he removed his mask of sanity, and with much delight and an overdose of terror, he simultaneously became Adam and Eve and the toxic snake of temptation.
    Inside his dreamscape, in an apocalyptic moment of insanity, he experienced a surreal life of 3 contradictory perspectives before being driven from Paradise.
    Upon awakening, he feared that he might die, for his heart beat rapidly and uncontrollably, he sweated profusely, and his wounded soul was flooded with unbearable, kaleidoscopic emotions. Yet if he survived the relentless onslaught of raw anguish and revelation, his sudden expulsion from Eden might free him.
    Perhaps, the only exit from his life of mourning was madness or death. Within seconds, his fate might be sealed unless a dark beautiful metamorphosis, triggered by a brief stay in Eden, transformed him forever.
