A Biblical Creationist's Dementia

And beasts creep downward–Eden's final guests.
Humanity, in jaundiced killing light
moves naked over paradise's quick.
Repugnant, scaled, time's ugly virgins wail–
Xanthium-yellow zygotes yell "xanax",
wanton, vain, unwell. Terrestrial sphere
revolves quagmiry, putrid, overgrown–
no murmurs linger-Kafkaesquely just.
Irrupting hungry ghouls foul Eden's dales–
cartoonish bacchanalia abounds.
