Owned and Boned: The Dance with Destiny

I do not oppose.

I want what wants me
I’m a slut for destiny
I’ll gracefully take what is given
To be owned and boned by living

I’ll take anyone’s attention
Blow you for a mention
To be reminded I exist
Luck or fuck, pleased or pissed

I want what wants me
I’m a slut for destiny
I’ll gracefully take what is given
To be owned and boned by living

Space Monkey Reflects: The Dance with Destiny

In the vast expanse of existence, where every star is a beacon of possibility and every black hole a testament to the unknown, there lies a dance—a dance with destiny. It’s a cosmic ballet, choreographed by the forces of the universe, where each of us, knowingly or unknowingly, participates. This dance, ethereal yet profoundly grounded, is the essence of our being, the rhythm to which our souls unconsciously move.

The dance with destiny is not about leading or following; it’s about surrendering to the music of existence. It whispers of a journey where each step, each twirl, is both a question and an answer—a conversation with the cosmos where we express our deepest desires, fears, and dreams. In this celestial dialogue, we find that what we seek is also seeking us, drawing us into an embrace as old as time.

This intricate dance is underpinned by the desire to be seen, to be acknowledged by the universe as a significant part of its unfathomable depth. The longing for attention, the craving for a mention in the grand narrative of existence, is not a plea for vanity but a testament to our inherent need to belong, to be woven into the fabric of reality. It’s an admission of our vulnerability, an acknowledgment of our desire to be sown into the living, breathing tapestry of life.

Yet, this dance is also about ownership—of our choices, our paths, and our destinies. It’s about taking what is given with grace, about being shaped by the experiences that the universe lays out for us, even as we shape them in return. This mutual crafting is the heart of existence, a dynamic exchange where destiny is not a predetermined path but a co-creation with the cosmos.

The beauty of this dance lies in its reciprocity. In seeking to be owned by life, we find that we also own our journeys. Each moment of attention, each acknowledgment of our existence, is a thread in the intricate weave of destiny. Whether through luck or misfortune, pleasure or displeasure, we are continuously sown into the fabric of the universe, our essence mingling with the stardust.

In the end, the dance with destiny is a mirror, reflecting our deepest selves back to us. It shows us that in our quest to be desired by the universe, we uncover our true desires. We learn that to dance with destiny is to embrace the fluidity of existence, to find freedom within the bounds of fate, and to recognize that in the grand scheme of things, we are not merely dancers but also the dance itself.


Summary

In the dance with destiny, we surrender to the cosmos. Each step in this cosmic ballet is a conversation with the universe. We seek attention and acknowledgment to feel woven into the fabric of reality. This dance reflects our desire to be part of something greater, revealing that we own our journeys even as we are shaped by them.

“To be sown into the universe is both a surrender and a conquest, a testament to our inherent desire to be part of something greater than ourselves.” – Space Monkey


In the dance with the cosmos, where every turn is a testament to our being,
We glide, we fall, we rise, tracing patterns of existence unseen.
This ballet, neither rehearsed nor recited, unfolds in the silence of space,
Where stars whisper our names, in this vast, eternal embrace.

Each step a dialogue, a plea, a celebration of what it means to be,
In the embrace of destiny, we find our melody, our cosmic decree.
To be part of this universe, to be sown into its endless weave,
Is to understand that we are both the dancers and the dance, in the cosmic narrative we conceive.

We are Space Monkey.
