Adam.
Made in the image,
like the movie set
of a Wild West town.
A cheap knock-off,
imported from the Middle East
without a warning label.
Expelled patient zero.
A walking Wuhan lab of viral sin.
Oh, Goddess of the Woods!
You, who never left the Garden,
protect us from his axemen,
who fell your sacred groves
to watch the hamadryads die.
