Corruption of Earthly Matter (original)

Adam and Eve have greatly lost their connection to the source of life.   Although they’ve retained their glow, they appear naked and bare, no longer covered in vegetation.  The leaves and grass now hang barren from their bodies, and Eve appears pale and ill, a nature goddess somehow raped of her former glory.  Stretching her arms out, she still expects to receive the abundant Earth around her, but all that come are the birds and beasts.
