Part 1 The virgin
I was walking up and down the street, not once but
four times. Suddenly I saw a virgin crying by the wall of ignorance. I can
remember that I asked her <<Why are you watering with your tears the
wall. My dear, no flower will appear on the wall. You can trust me. I am here
for thousands of years and I am kicking butts and taking names. No good came
out of this! >> The virgin stopped and looked at me. Her eyes after a few
seconds transformed to small galaxies. After a few more seconds she asked me
politely to give her my blade to cut her breasts. I did give her my sharp blade
and I asked her why she wanted to do that.
<<I do not want to give birth and feed a prophet>>
she said.
After that, the stars above started to explode and
smile in weird and unexpected ways.
My thoughts were mixed with milk and honey and the
gods accepted my offering. I ask them to take the virgin to the unknown far
depths of the universe, to help her, to take her away from the cruelty of this
planet and give her the finest things of creation. They did that pleasantly and
the weeping virgin was saved from the sharp mutated nails of the scientific
stupidity. 2018
