God in the Form of Einstein

she was a maid, a french maid.
she wore a corset that pushed her breasts
up towards the night sky like two full moons
her skirt was short enough to barely catch the
smile that her butt made as she walked
and legs long and sleek hugged tightly
by transparent black stockings with a
dark black seam up the back that shot
up into the unknown regions of her underside

she busily flittered about the dark office chamber
with walls of windows all 1 foot exactly
and showing through to nothing in particular.
it was a starry night that night
and she found herself pausing every so often to
gaze at the swirling milky way above

she had visitors
a group of young scientists and people of no striking
gathered around her
she felt no shame that her skirt had been accidentally
tucked into her stockings after her last visit to the ladies room
and her bare ass shone brightly as it bounced while she walked towards them.
they muttered many things
but she could not hear
as their voices seemed to be muffled or muted or
perhaps her ears were plugged by an unnamable source?
she wasted little time to ponder this
for she was being pulled by yet another strange force
outside of the office
to the sidewalk

the night was cool
very dark save for the sky
and chaos slowly moved about her
frame by frame
a car in the back parking lot
sank below the pavement
quicksand, she thought,
yet when she floated towards the hole
she realized there was only emptiness
blackness, and silence

she retreated to the gathering of people
who remained at the sidewalk
and had now blocked out their presence entirely
for the sky was doing something particularly strange
she dug two fingers into her stockings and reached against
her ass to find the bit of fabric from her skirt that
had been tucked away and pulled it out
letting her skirt dance freely once again upon her

she gazed up at the starry sky
that was now twinkling and stirring
it was as though a chef was stirring a pot of stew
that was the sky
mystified she stood there, dropping her feather duster
which made no sound as it hit the cold cement
the sky grew brighter, the sparkles more intense,
and the colors became vibrantly red and pink and yellow
suddenly a strike of panic flooded through her
as a planet began to formulate amidst the starry soup
it grew bigger and bigger and bigger
until it seemed to fill the entire sky

she took a step back onto the grass that cradled the sidewalk
and tried to look away
but she was unable to ignore the steadily growing planet
above her
it grew big enough for her to see the lines and cracks in its surface
and its streams and mountains
though it was grower still more red
like lava was engulfing it
she feared it would explode
and before she completed the thought
the planet began shaking
and all the red rivers flooded with a swift and fierce movement
and in an instant the planet exploded, bursting fragments from all angles
her consciousness faded
and became black.

she awoke
as she opened her eyes
her vision had become fish angled
and foggy
she was in a white room
without hesitation she rose
and was guided by two formless and faceless beings
who walked her through a series of rooms
that appeared to exist in a house or office
there were many figures there
some on telephones
some at their desks
some leaning against bookshelves
there was a slight breeze, she noticed
as curtains blew with a calm sweetness
that for some reason made her feel safe
and humbled
she was not in her usual attire
but in long flowing fibrous linens
she was lead into a heavily guarded room
where an old man sat quietly wearing similar garb.

he sat with his head looking down at a scroll for a moment
before looking up at her
she felt the man prying in to her mind
she felt naked, more naked than when her ass was
bare in front of all the onlookers at the office
but there was something very familiar or mystical about the man
that made her release her guard and let him flow freely
throughout her mind
he began speaking
without words
through her mind
they began communicating through visions, images, and concepts.
she had asked in a way what had happened to the planet in the sky
and what had happened to her
he made it very clear that it had been earth
and that its time was up
for he had made several mistakes with it
but that she had been unharmed
and sent to see him
for she was very special
i am what you call god, he said
she sat silent
i am the creator of the physical universe, he continued
and am making another earth
i will show you how i make the earth, and planets of the like.
come here and sit next to me

she floated towards him with no effort
and sat quietly, without a sound, next to him
before them lay a scroll
with lines patterned like a protractor
showing many degrees and angles
and strange scientific symbols
from the periodic table she recalled from grade school
revealing various elements and such
the lines were all drawn with a loose gold powder
he explained that these were all the components of the universe
and how he used them to create the planet earth
he explained briefly
that this section contained the 4% helium, and 6% hydrogen,
and that section contained the percentage of mammals to insects,
how many humans and such
until all she could comprehend was a fast forwarded image
of the entire planet earth and every single atom interacting with one another
as one time lapsed film
a blur, a blink, and a notion so charged and brief that she
was left mute
with more knowledge of the planet and the universe
than she knew would fit into her pretty little brain
with one look
he blew on the scroll
and as her consciousness faded the final image
of the gold powder running into the wind
became darkness.

she awoke with her feather duster between her legs
as she lay face down in the grass beside the sidewalk
outside the office where she attended to and had regular
affairs with the business men who worked very hard there
making deals and screwing people over
she pulled the duster from beneath her
and dusted herself off
she pulled the neckline of her blouse down and gave
her round breasts a little push up
which gave them their usual heir of power and feminine deity.

she resumed her usual duties of dusting the window sills
in her black patent-leather stiletto heels
and had almost no recollection of the events she had just experiened
besides the image of gold dust blowing into her body,
which she pondered quiet eerily as she moved about.

she was on her knees and her ass waved proudly in the air
knealing beneath a desk so as to clean the underside of the table
revealing the dark crack between her legs and just below her butt
as she felt a strange pull towards the outside night whose
darkness rang a mysterious tone in her insides

she started recollecting the strange groups of visitors
and the starry sky
so she followed this vague ambition
and found herself
on the cold hard sidewalk
staring up at the sky
painted with twinkling signs of the milky way
she stood motionless for a moment
before she began breathing heavily
breasts heaving and beads of sweat forming
on her brow and underarms
she began panting and rubbing her eyes
for the sky sprouted a planet
much like the one she now remembered she
had seen before
it grew bigger and bigger and bigger just like it had
so big that it filled the sky
she took a step back
her stiletto dug into the soil of the grass
and she slipped both heels off
standing with her little feet on the ground
only barrier her stockings
which had ripped against the cement

the planet grew redder, pinker, and the stew of stars and gasses
stirred around it, twinkling and shaking
the lava streamed lines began overflowing and spurting out
onto the surface
and the planet was bursting like a ripe tomatoe
when suddenly it popped and her
mind went black.

she awoke sitting upright in a very small and confined office
dimly lit and only large enough to fit a small desk 2 chairs, nothing else
behind her she felt a queue of people behind her, but saw no one but a fog
her vision once again fish eyed.
when she turned her head to face the desk she was surprised to find
a woman seated before her
dark hair, large eyes, smiling red lips.
the woman reached into her mind
and spoke to her
she said, i am what you call god
i am the creator of the celestial realm of existence
the existential and spiritual manifestor
i design purpose and destiny and things of the like
i would like to tell you what your purpose is.
may you step forward to me here
she felt herself float effortlessly to the desk's side
alongside her was the presence of her sister
whom she had not seen for many months
they did not acknowledge one another
but instead simply knew that each other was there
the woman handed her sister a burgundy hand towel
with a word or two embroidered in the fabric
her sister stepped back into nothingness
and was no longer beside her
the woman then handed another burgundy hand towel
to her, it read "truth"
she turned to the woman
and said something similar to
of course truth, that makes sense, the ultimate purpose
is to find and be truth
is that all?
no of course not, you are special my dear, the woman said
look here,
to the left of the woman
a small patch of starry sky appeared out of nothingness
like a thought bubble in a cartoon
and hovered 3 demensionally next to her
look closely,
she leaned forward, eyes fixed on the starry scene
nothing happened for a moment,
but then a small sliver of light appeared
and got larger, like a tear, or a rip
light seemed to pour out into space,
very delicately
and the tear grew no larger, but remained steady
this is you, the woman said
you are the keeper of the universe
you are the knowledge of the here and there
you know the physical and the celestial
you are the tear between them both
you are the communicator between them both
you exist just as this tear in space exists
the river that must be crossed to know of either one
this is you
this is your purpose
and this is why you are special.

without a word or thought
her consciousness went black
and she awoke face up
legs and arms spread far apart
in an empty field near a playground
she rose and dusted off her knees
which bore a pair of jeans
complimented by the sweatshirt
and cap that finished the rest of her body
she began walking
not knowing exactly where to
and found herself at the mouth of a trail that she
intuitively knew lead through a forest and
eventually to a coastal shoreline
she followed it without hesitation
listening to the quiet dripping of fog
upon the leaves, the pitter patter of needles
of pines dropping to the soft duff along the trail
and the sweet and eerie melodies of the birds
and creatures who bustled amongst the trees
trees of ancient and godlike demure, she thought
time did not exist
so for how long she had hiked did not matter and was
of no consequence
she arrived at the shoreline
of a beach cradled like a half moon
a rich layer of silver fog nestled there
only feet from the sandy floor
there were bits of drift wood and banks of shimmering rocks
and wet stones drying next to crunchy rubberlike strands of seaweed
she stood and gazed at the surrounding forest that towered over the
beach like wise elders

a pelican swooped before her and directed her attention to the surf
where something was stirring
a whale!
she saw its dorsal fin
sink back into the ocean
her eyes were fixed upon the crashing waves
where it had dissappeared
it came up again, this time bringing its entire top half above the water
it shone its eye
and for several moments, or several centuries for all she cared
they looked at one another
she saw the sweetness and compassion within the whale
they spoke without speaking
and it sank slowly into the waves once again
it came up after a while and showed her its
fins and flukes
and for one last time
brought its head above the water and hovered
sharing one more gaze with her
one more communication
that left her feeling naked
so naked as a planet, a blade of grass, a tree, a pelican, and a whale.
and the fog lifted
the whale never to show itself again,
and the beach fully populated with humans
sun shining brightly against her rosy cheeks..
