surely naked

After eating of the forbidden fruit
Adam was surely naked
exposed for the clay that he was;
the presence of God departed
no longer in communion
with the Creator of heaven and earth.
After the curse of wisdom
seeing his station clearly,
the divide between himself and God;
oh yes, he was surely naked.
