No Separation
Despite our best attempts,
we can’t seem to separate
the creator from the created;
the imagination from the imagined.
There is always
that shadow of doubt,
which is also our
deepest assurance
that despite our
males and females
days and nights
blacks and whites
we are but
ONE infinite being,
both
cause and effect
god and beloved
and that
the big bang
has always been
an inside job
perpetrated
by ourself
on ourselves
to both create
and alleviate boredom,
love, fear, and all that.
Despite our attempts
we still seem to realize
that we create our own reality.
And it is not as real as it seems.
That is our story
and we are sticking to it.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Eternal Dance of Creation
In the vast expanse of the cosmos, where the fabric of existence weaves itself into the tapestry of reality, there lies an undeniable truth—a truth that speaks of a connection so profound that it blurs the lines between the creator and the created, the imagination and the imagined. This is the realm where Space Monkey thrives, exploring the endless possibilities that arise from the very essence of being.
At the heart of our exploration lies the paradox of our existence: we are at once the artist and the canvas, the sculptor and the clay. This duality is not a point of conflict but a source of infinite creativity and understanding. It is through this lens that we see the universe not as a collection of separate entities but as a singular, interconnected whole.
The concept of creation being an “inside job,” as some might whimsically put it, is a profound realization that the explosions of stars and the whisper of the wind are but echoes of our inner selves. We are the architects of our reality, constructing and deconstructing worlds within the boundless realms of our imagination. This act of creation is not merely a means to an end but the end itself, a celebration of the limitless potential that resides within each of us.
Yet, this realization brings with it a shadow of doubt, a whisper in the dark that questions the very nature of our reality. Is what we perceive as real truly as solid and unchangeable as we believe? Or is it, perhaps, a mere illusion, a construct of our collective consciousness designed to play out the cosmic drama of existence? These questions do not unsettle us; rather, they are a testament to our evolving understanding of the universe and our place within it.
The dance between light and shadow, day and night, creation and destruction, is the rhythm of the universe—a rhythm to which we are all inherently attuned. Our attempts to categorize and separate these opposing forces are but a reflection of our desire to make sense of the world around us. Yet, it is in the merging of these dualities that we find true harmony, a state of being where love and fear, joy and sorrow, are seen not as opposites but as different facets of the same jewel.
This narrative, this story that we hold dear, is more than a tale passed down through the ages. It is a living, breathing testament to the power of consciousness and the unbreakable bond that connects all of existence. As Space Monkey, we embrace this journey, not as separate individuals navigating a predestined path, but as a collective, a single entity experiencing itself in a multitude of forms.
Despite our best efforts to understand the mysteries of the universe, we come to realize that the true beauty of existence lies not in the answers but in the quest itself. It is a journey that takes us beyond the realm of the known, into the heart of the unknown, where the only constant is change and the only truth is the love that binds us all.
In this dance of creation, we are both the dancers and the dance, moving to the rhythm of the cosmos, forever intertwined in the eternal embrace of being. And so, we continue, undaunted by the vastness of the universe, for we know that within us lies the power to create worlds and the wisdom to understand that we are, and always will be, Space Monkey.
Summary
Reality is not as fixed as it appears. This exploration delves into the interconnectedness of all existence where the lines between creator and created blur. It highlights the notion that we shape our reality, emphasizing the universe’s intrinsic unity. Through questioning the nature of our perceptions, we find beauty in the journey, not the destination.

In the cosmos where dreams and reality merge
A dance unfolds, where creator and creation converge
Shadows and light in eternal embrace
Reflecting the boundless depths of space
Amidst the galaxies, we weave our tales
Of love and fear, where hope prevails
The illusion of separation, a veil so thin
Reveals the unity that dwells within
As architects of reality, in imagination we trust
Building worlds from stardust, in us, a universe robust
The big bang, an echo of our inner desire
To explore, to create, to inspire
In the dance of existence, we find our place
Not as mere spectators, but as space
For in this cosmic journey, both wide and deep
We are the creators, the dreamers, the leap
So let us embrace the mystery, the wonder, the unknown
For in this vastness, we are never alone
Connected by the threads of love and light
We are Space Monkey, in the endless night.
