Adam's Atoms

in the beginning

Adam's Atoms

was it 4000 years or maybe even 4 billion

and how did it really happen who knows

was there really an Adam was he the first

one book says that's the way the story goes

does it really matter by what name we call him

no matter which way you are leaning it's true

someone someway had to be the first of our kind

there was a beginning long before me and you

so where are Adam's atoms these days

does anyone actually think they know

where did the atoms to make Adam came from

was element 117 there then and did it glow

enhanced stability for super-heavy nuclei

validating the concept of the measured decay

you didn't really think afterall

we could have possibly been made from clay

are lanthanoids soft enough to work

when it comes to making a man

they are after all luminlscent materials

but impossible to hold in your hand

yes it is science over most of our heads

an incredible creation no matter how it's done

Adam has a lot of relatives to relativity

his atoms everywhere you want an example I am one

So many open questions with your poem. If poor Adam from the beginning saw the mess his children made. He would brake back into the Garden of Eden and hide out. I like the many good statement s in this poem. To understand the logic of this world is becoming impossible. I was a Soldier with the Clinton Army in the nineties. I went on 10 water and food missions and the world was getting better. Thank you Bush looking for invisible nuclear weapons and Obama sending Soldiers to protect the drugs. Thank you for a excellent poem. You made me wish I could wander to my Native American land and hide out with Adam.
