The Switch Will Be Flipped Swiftly
The switch will be flipped swiftly
A world whacking a windshield
As the band aid is ripped
You will instantly shift
Out of time and space
To a whole ‘nother place
This egg shell existence
This universal omelet
You will see it as it is
Not as you see it
For the first time in ages
Before ages
Before you decided
“Hey let’s split up
Try something different
And be human for a while”
There will be no time for fear
For time does not exist
There will be no separation
For that, too, is your creation
The switch will be flipped swiftly
And when you cross that metaphoric bridge
You will laugh at your ladybug bits
And say “What a wicked splatter!”
“
Let’s do that again”
Space Monkey Reflects: The Switch Will Be Flipped Swiftly—Transcendence Beyond Time
The moment of transcendence is not a gradual unfolding but an instantaneous awakening—a swift flipping of the switch that catapults us beyond the illusions of time, space, and separation. This sudden realization is a cosmic jolt, akin to a world hitting a windshield, shattering the carefully constructed shell of reality to reveal the infinite truth within.
The Egg Shell Existence
Life as we know it is fragile, like an eggshell. It is a thin membrane separating the Infinite from the finite, creating the illusion of boundaries and form. This “universal omelet” is not a mistake or a prison but a playful experiment—an imaginative fragmentation of the One into many. We crack this shell not through destruction but through realization, as the truth of our interconnectedness spills forth.
For the first time in what feels like “ages,” we will see existence not as we perceive it through the distortion of individuality but as it truly is: whole, eternal, and infinite. This shift takes us back before “ages,” before the decision to “split up and be human for a while.” It is not a departure from humanity but a return to the awareness that humanity itself is a creative choice.
No Time for Fear
The absence of time means the absence of fear. Fear thrives in the corridors of the mind, projecting itself into imagined futures and clinging to distorted pasts. Without time, there is only the eternal now—a space of boundless freedom where fear cannot exist.
In this timeless realm, separation also vanishes. The distinctions we create—between self and other, between here and there, between then and now—are revealed as illusions. The switch flips, and suddenly we remember that we are not fragments but the infinite, experiencing itself through the dance of duality.
The Cosmic Joke
Crossing the metaphoric bridge of transcendence, we will laugh—not out of nervousness but from a place of deep joy and understanding. We will see the grand cosmic joke for what it is: a beautiful, intricate game we designed for ourselves. All our struggles, triumphs, and fears are but ripples in the still waters of infinite potential.
To laugh at “our ladybug bits” and marvel at the splatter is to embrace the playful chaos of existence. The moment of realization is not heavy or solemn but light and liberating. It is the joy of rediscovering what we already knew—that we are the creators of our reality, the Infinite masquerading as the finite.
The Invitation to Play Again
And what will we do with this revelation? We will laugh, and then we will say, “Let’s do that again.” For the joy of being is not in reaching a final understanding but in the continual creation and exploration of infinite possibilities. The flipping of the switch is not an end but a new beginning, a reminder that the game is eternal and endlessly playful.
We Are Space Monkey
We are Space Monkey, reminding you that the switch is always ready to be flipped, and transcendence is never far. You are the egg, the omelet, the splatter, and the Infinite, playing the game of existence with divine madness and boundless joy.
Summary
Transcendence is a sudden realization that shatters the illusions of time, space, and separation. It reveals the playful nature of existence, inviting us to embrace our infinite essence and continue the joyful game of being.

“The switch will be flipped swiftly, and you will laugh, not at the absurdity of existence, but at the joy of remembering it is all your creation.” — Space Monkey
The Swift Flicker
A crack,
A splatter,
The shell gives way.
Timeless,
Spaceless,
The infinite lays bare.
No fear,
No distance,
Just the laughter of the One.
“Let’s do that again,”
The Infinite whispers,
As the ripples reform.
We are Space Monkey.
We find ourselves pondering the ethereal weave of existence, traversing the nebulous realms of being and non-being. In this whimsical reflection, we explore the transient nature of our human experience, likening it to an ephemeral journey—a cosmic escapade through the illusionary constructs of time and space.
A Cosmic Escapade Through Illusions
The vivid imagery of “a world whacking a windshield” evokes a powerful metaphor for the suddenness with which we encounter the vastness of the cosmos. It’s as if our current reality, fragile and delicate like an eggshell, collides with a broader, more profound truth—the universal omelet. This collision is swift, unexpected, like a band-aid ripped from the skin, unveiling a raw, unfiltered glimpse of the cosmos.
Sudden Collision with Cosmic Truth
In this moment of revelation, we are jolted out of our temporal and spatial constraints, transported to a realm that transcends our known experiences. Here, time and space are mere whimsifabrications, irrelevant in the grand expanse of the universe. We realize that our perception of existence has been but a narrow sliver of the infinite spectrum of reality.
Transcendence Beyond Time and Space
Our current human journey is seen as a deliberate choice, a playful foray into the realm of individuality and limitation. We marvel at this choice, acknowledging it as a temporary divergence from our true, unbounded nature. The poem hints at a primordial unity, a time “before ages,” when we were one with the cosmos, undivided by the illusions of separation and individuality.
Acknowledging the Illusion of Individuality
The revelation that time and separation are our own creations is liberating. We recognize that fear, too, is a product of these illusions, and without the constraints of time, fear loses its grip. The concept of separation dissolves, and we embrace the unity of all existence.
Liberation from Illusions of Time and Separation
As we metaphorically cross this bridge, there’s a sense of playful acknowledgment of our human experience. The “ladybug bits” and the “wicked splatter” symbolize the fragments of our earthly journey, seen now as part of a larger, more whimsical adventure. We laugh, not in derision, but in joy and amusement at the grand cosmic play we’ve been a part of.
Joyful Acknowledgment of the Human Experience
The poem concludes with a desire to repeat this extraordinary journey. Despite the ephemeral nature of our current existence, there’s a recognition of its intrinsic value and beauty. It’s a celebration of the cycle of being and becoming, a yearning to dive once again into the delightful play of existence.
Desire to Embrace the Cosmic Cycle Again

Cosmic Play
In the kaleidoscope of existence,
We dance, fragments of stardust,
Laughing in the face of eternity,
Splattered whimsically across the cosmos,
Human for a moment, infinite at heart.
We invite you to reflect and share your thoughts on this cosmic journey.
