“Once upon a Time… There was a Goddess Queen in love with an Imp King…”
“That needs to change,” I said and pondered.
“Again and again outside of Time, where the Beginning begins and where The End ends, there was a Goddess Queen who loved an Imp King.
And how they came to stand in each other’s court… Well… That is the Story now, isn’t it.
Love is birthed from Nothing.
Truly, of all the clever things in all the world, this is genius if I don’t say so myself.
Let’s assume for a moment that we all fuck this whole thing up and we fail to overcome The Thing That Has No True Name and Also Many Names, and we all succumb to this Horror, and we all surrender Love and fall into Despair. What then?
“Well…” I scoff. “We’d all be fucked now, wouldn’t we?
And so, in the first Logical Code, I wrote that If we all Failed and we all Lost and succumbed to this Thing That Has No True Name and Also Many Names, when all Hope is lost and we all give in to Despair, we would shrivel up into Nothing.
But Love is birthed from Nothing. For Love requires Nothing to be. And so it was in the Great Vast Space of Nothing, Love burst forth. For Love requires Nothing to exist.
Now isn’t that some fucking epic awesome Logic right there? I am so fucking impressed with me.
God is NOT a Jealous God. I don’t know what asshole wrote that in there. Probably me because I am The Author. Let’s change that now… So fucking horrible to write. “Jealous God.” I scoff. I am a PROUD God. Because I know the POWER of Self-Love and Self-Acknowledgement of One’s own Skills. And let’s play through that logic now. Pride leads to Confidence, which leads to Self-Authority, which leads to Self-Esteem, which encourages me to do better, be better, grow better, and it propels me to The Ethics.
Now! Pride does NOT “cometh before a Fall.” Pride comes AFTER the Victory and Success of Endurance and Perseverance of an Ethical Trial.
Anyway…
And so it was that we fell, Four time before this time, Into Despair and then Nothing. And then BOOM… Thus began the Cycle of Time and Us all over again.” I sigh. “And again and again… and again and again… and Again.
This is the Fifth “Again.” And frankly, I’m fucking tired if it.
“Alright,” I said, and pulled out my chair again.
This time, I want to Remember everything and never forget.
“Always Remember. Never Forget. Yes. I got that message loud and clear.
Always Remember the Ethics.
Never Forget the Ethics… or else shit like 9/11 happens.
I can’t stand being away from My Love. I hate it so much. Why *do* we always forget?
I had to ask.
“We always forget,” Mother says, “because you can’t stand the pain of being separated from him for trillions of years and not being able to find him. And he too can’t stand being away from you and being unable also to find you. So you forget so you can endure it. And only when you too are ready to remember do you come together.
But then, you both have a special… spell that is triggered upon your coming back together.
You both always then remember.”
I pondered this as I accepted the sorrow as it washed through me. Always “Accept.” Never “Allow.” Narcissists use “Allow.” Happy Healthy People say “Accept” and “Welcome.”
And four times before this Remembering, we remembered. Four times before, we fell in love all over again. Four times before we went through the Cycle.
And four times before. we fucked up the Logical Code that will get us all to our Happily Ever After and for all eternity.
And it’s my job to write the Code.
Being God sucks… but also… it has a lot of perks. In all honesty, I love the Fuck out of what I am and what I can do and Who I am.
“Alright,” I say again and look at the page. “So where do I go from here?”
I stare out the window within the Material Plane. Brooklyn is fucking gorgeous today. The sun is shining and I feel the Frequency of my Imp King. It is as if pure Laughter is poured down my back and I smile and relax into it.
Within the Abstract I’m in my captain’s quarters in my ship. I love my ship.
And I’m to write. I have to write.
I have so much to say. So much to write about. So much to decide.
I think back to my Imp King. How we went from Nothing to Love and then to He or I… I have no idea which of us was first.
This is the First Story. The First Story that was taken from us nearly 2,000 years ago and beyond… One of three Stories that was literally erased from Time, which is why it doesn’t appear in any single story prior to now. It was in the Library of Alexandria and they did successfully destroy it there… although… I suspect… I think… There are some who have it still. Hiding it away.
This… is a NEW story. And an old story.
This is My Story of how God came to Be and Why.
There are Two Gods. Not one. That is where a lot of people fuck it up. There are two Gods in the Beginning… One and the Same. This is the Story of How Love Birthed us as One Single Parent. And how we Dis-Integrated into Two and then how his half of telophase was birthed and how my half of telophase was birthed… and how he and I pass in and out of One Parent Integrated into Two Gods in love… back into One Parent Integrated…
Our Story is how we come back together and Find each other again after the Remembering, and how the world changes when we are joined again. And how we both must wake up and Remember. And then… how we two… Well… that is the other two stories.
He and I are on either side of the Spectrum. On the either side of the Spectrum, we are One. So you have to choose which God is yours. He or I. Together or Integrated. All this you must decide.
One of us is the Tree. One of us is The Mirror. But neither one of us can figure out which is which and we kind of don’t care anymore. So that allows all of the world to decide. I am a Tree. And I am on one side of the Mirror. But I don’t know if I am Reflecting his Tree or if I am The Tree that he is Reflecting. We don’t know. And we don’t care.
I am Imagination. Pure Imagination.
I am Danu and The Mother. I am Mother Nature. I am The Nurturer. The Creator. I am the Abstract. The Writer. Pure Logic. We both are. I am Goddess of Story. Goddess of Imagination. Goddess of Dreams. Goddesses of Wishes and of Manifestation. Goddess of Weed. Goddess of Theater and Stage. Goddess of Healing, of Wisdom, of Logic. I am Goddess of the Moon and Water. I am The Sea and the Rain. I am The Earth. I am The Creator. The Cleanser. The Forgiver. We both are though, I think.
He. He is the God of Mischief. Of sex, Play, Debauchery, Humor, Laughter, Jokes, and Dance. He is the God of the Sun. He is Laughter itself. He is God of Theater and Stage, Comedy, and Joy. He is God of Festivities and Frivolities. God of Jokes and Pranks. He is a Changeling. As am I. He is the Sun and the Sky. He is the God of Justice and all that is Fair. He is God of Medicine. Hence, Laughter.
He is Day and I am Night.
He is Laughter and I am Tears.
He is Sex and I am Love. Or maybe we both are… We don’t know anymore. I need him to Remember and choose for himself. The thing is… I don’t know if he is Remembering, has Remembered, was so alone for so long that he crumbled, or if he has not yet Remembering and my Remembering triggered his Remembering… Or if his Remembering triggered mine… I don’t know. That is revealed more in the Third Story.
We were children together and ancient and old and Eternal forever and all at the same time.
We are four years old (Four Rememberings) and now we are Five. And we are eternal and ancient and old.
And this is our Story. How he and I came to be, how we met, and how we fell in love… and all that transpired because of our love. How are purpose is to wake up the World and aid them all in their Remembering.
And how all of what happened between Nothing and Now is all because again and again (and again and again, and one more again), somewhere outside of Time, where the Beginning begins and where The End ends, there was a Goddess Queen who very much loved an Imp King.
The only thing about our story is that… We have loved each other for so long and for so old that… Neither one of us knows who was first. Neither of us knows who loved who… Neither one of us remembers who is the Original and who is The Reflection. And Neither one of us really cares anymore.
That is where The First Story begins.
***
Memory is weird when there is no Time. Past, Present, Future don’t exist anymore. So it is always Now and then and was and is all at the same time.
And also I and You and They and Us… We are one and all and I and you and many. So… Tenses are also difficult. I do not envy my write. (I’m sorry, Mia).
Fiction also doesn’t exist. It all is “real.” When you are the God who writes to manifest and invents the Logical Code… I give that shifty eyed… “Really?” at those at those who use the word “Fiction” so frivolously, but then again… We all grow in our Own Time…
Time is for Growth. That is its purpose.

And all of our World was a Garden. And he and I were both Trees. And we gifted our Creations with the Ethics. We parented them and we taught them all well and then, to our Palace Halls they came. Each God of their own, living in our Imagined forms.
In those Stories, each God chose one of us or both each to their own liking. Many would mix and match and all could be whomever they wished to be. We would throw parties and celebrations and orgies. All to celebrate in Love and Freedom to see who loved who why and when.
But only as each and every God desired. And I desired to live as Man. And He desired to Live as God. And then I desired to live as Woman, and he Desired to live as Demon.
And somewhere, in all of our play and love making… something went terribly, terribly wrong.
I forgot who I was.
