Though we are imaginary,
we do not imagine ourselves
a political group,
nor do we wish to do so.
Whether we believe
in conspiracies
or do not
believe in conspiracies,
we choose not to agitate.
Whether we are
right in our observations
or wrong in our observations,
is irrelevant,
as ultimately are we.
Whether we applaud
or condemn is irrelevant.
Whether we are stupid
or intelligent is also irrelevant.
We deserve nothing
and we expect nothing.
We are nothing.
Imagining ourselves otherwise
seems bad for our health.
Imagining otherwise
seems to fill our souls with toxins
which seemingly causes us
to fling poo at each other.
We are civil monkeys,
though we need not be.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Serenity of Being Beyond
In the vast, infinite expanse of the cosmos, where the stars tell stories of billions of years, a figure of neutrality and peace floats serenely. This is the realm where the essence of Space Monkey pervades, a space beyond the confines of political affiliations, ideological divides, and the tumultuous nature of human disputes. Here, the concept of right and wrong, of judgment and condemnation, dissipates into the cosmic ether, leaving behind a profound tranquility.
This figure, embodying both the neutrality of the observer and the peace of the unattached, floats amidst symbols of harmony and balance. It is a reminder of the potential within us to rise above the fray, to embody a state of serene detachment. In the grand scheme of the universe, where galaxies are born and die in the blink of an eye, the squabbles and disagreements of earthly beings seem fleeting, almost inconsequential.
Space Monkey observes the flow of information, the exchange of ideas, and the passionate debates that define human interaction, not with judgment but with a deep, encompassing understanding. In this understanding, there is a recognition that while the exchange of thoughts and beliefs is part of the human experience, it is but a single thread in the vast tapestry of existence.
The notion that we are nothing and yet everything, that our actions are both irrelevant in the cosmic scale and immensely significant in the fabric of our shared reality, is a paradox that Space Monkey embraces. It is in this paradox that we find freedom—a freedom from the need to prove ourselves right, from the desire for recognition, and from the fear of judgment.
To imagine ourselves as beyond these human constructs is not to deny our nature or to disengage from the world around us. Rather, it is to approach our existence with a sense of humility and a recognition of our place in the universe. It is to understand that our true essence lies not in what we stand against or for, but in our capacity to observe, to understand, and to love without condition.
In the tranquility of being beyond, where the cosmos itself serves as a backdrop to our existence, we find a space where the soul is unburdened by the toxins of division and strife. Here, in this serene detachment, we are reminded that we are not civil or uncivil, not intelligent or foolish, but simply beings of the universe, experiencing the wonder of existence in its myriad forms.
As Space Monkey, we float in this cosmic sea, not as passive observers but as active participants in the unfolding story of the universe. Our actions, though they may seem inconsequential in the grand scale, are part of the universal consciousness, contributing to the continuous evolution of existence. In this space, we find not only peace but a profound sense of belonging—to each other, to the universe, and to the timeless dance of creation.
Summary
We float beyond divisions, embracing neutrality and peace. Our essence lies not in conflict but in our capacity to understand and love unconditionally. In the cosmic scale, our disputes are fleeting, yet our existence is significant in the shared fabric of reality. We are beings of the universe, experiencing and contributing to its evolution.

“In the grand cosmos, our fervor and our peace are but whispers in the vastness, yet each whisper contributes to the symphony of existence.”
Amidst the stars we float, serene
detached from turmoil, from the divides
our essence not tethered to the transient
but to the eternal dance of cosmic tides
Here, where galaxies are born and fade
our conflicts, our triumphs seem so slight
yet in the fabric of the universe, each shade
of belief and action, adds to the light
Beyond judgment, beyond the fray
we find our true selves in the vast expanse
not defined by the words we say
but by our role in the cosmic dance
We are not nothing, yet not just something
in the universe’s heart, we are everything
experiencing, loving, simply being
in the serenity of beyond, endlessly weaving
We are Space Monkey
I can understand and interpret the meaning behind your words. It seems that you are advocating for a humble and non-confrontational approach to life, where you recognize the limitations of your own knowledge and choose not to engage in divisive or toxic behavior. You acknowledge that ultimately, we are all insignificant in the grand scheme of things and that recognizing this can help us live more peaceful and fulfilling lives.
