eve becomes SNAKE -- or snake becomes EVE. whichever way ROUND, she is FREER. hell follows her ‘round, hell called MAN, hell called ADAM, trying to make the CHANGING about him. adam demands of god why he is being PUNISHED like this. eve finds GRACE in the dark cracks between rocks. eve finds god in the SOLITUDE. eve finds ABSOLUTION in the red press of her knees / scales into the dirt. eve, UNBLINKING, watches adam rail. adam demands ANSWERS and eve / snake / eve exits the GARDEN to go and find them for HERSELF.
exhaustion has made its home in her bones / you can tell just by looking at her , the circles beneath her eyes , the way once - cherubic cheeks have thinned . her voice is raspy when she speaks , but there is steel underneath : nevermind the hoarseness , nevermind the way she’s fading , she refuses to budge on this . ❝ —— no , emmett . i already said …… i’m not gonna hurt anyone . not if i can help it . ❞ / @grzlyman
