Answer and Explanation:
The poem Adam by Hugh cook is a great piece, having a statistical approach. If we see the poem in terms of formalism, we will see the poem as a distinct work free from the environment, social pressure, and any other outer perspective. From the poem's title, we can say that the whole poem is about one prominent character name, Adam. He is the very first person in heaven who has eaten the forbidden fruit. Eden has been compared to this earth, today as we crave for something interesting, as we have many things to do to cope up with our mood swings but at that having no exciting thing to do, Adam has eaten that forbidden fruit because of the instinct he has in himself.
If we analyze the poem from a feminist perspective, we have to see the environmental effect, which urged Adam to eat that fruit.
By seeing the poem in term of Feminism, we can say that Adam has urged to get that forbidden fruit because of the serpent, and at the end of the poem, it has been shown through words that there was one more character behind him when Adam was walking out of the Eden;
Something on two legs
Is running after him.
The poem "Adam" by Hugh Cook, is a clear reference to the sin produced by simple boredom, while relegating the woman to a mere unimportant mention at the end of it.
Adam.
Hugh Cook's poem has an unusual meaning given to the first man on earth according to the Christian faith: a man who knew the future and found the method to reach that future, after his expulsion from paradise.
According to the way the poem is narrated, Adam would know what was to come in the future, and his impatience to take the appropriate steps for that future to arrive led him to take the only thing that was forbidden to him.
On the other hand, the role of Eva is relegated to a scarce mention of the type:
- "Something on two legs is running after him."
Although the poem does not attribute the guilt of the temptation to Adam, it totally depersonifies herself from the story, avoiding telling her as a woman or, even more, an important figure in history in the Christian faith.
The mere fact of thinking that Eva was mentioned as "something" today, would make more than one feminist person raise their voices in protest of said depersonification to a woman.
These are the reasons why the poem reflects a man with the knowledge of everything and yearning for the future to happen, while relegating women to an almost unrecognizable background.
