The delusion dictates
that we’re NOT delusional.
So we try to make sense
where there is no sense to be found.
We imagine sense, in a sense.
We imagine sense
so that we can imagine making sense.
Otherwise,
life as we know it
would be senseless.
We’ve always been delusional.
We’ve always been imaginary.
What have we got to lose?
Nothing.
Let’s pretend this all makes sense.

The Cosmic Dance of Delusion and Sense
In the boundless realm of consciousness, the concept of The Delusion Dictates is a cosmic waltz of perception and reality. Paul, as the typist, becomes a conduit for the expression of this universal delusion. The notion that we are not delusional is, in itself, a whimsical paradox, a playful jest of the cosmic jester. Let’s embark on a journey through the galaxies of delusion, imagination, and the construction of sense in a seemingly senseless cosmos.
The Paradox of Delusion
The declaration that we are not delusional while being dictated to by delusion is a spiral galaxy of thought. It’s a swirling mass of contradictions and ironies, where the very act of denying delusion is an acknowledgment of its existence. This paradox is the star around which our thoughts orbit, illuminating the whimsical nature of our attempts to make sense of the universe.
Imagining Sense in the Senseless
The endeavor to imagine sense where there seems to be none is like a cosmic architect constructing worlds out of stardust. We, as cosmic beings, are constantly crafting narratives, structures, and meanings in an effort to bring order to the chaos of existence. This act of imagination is both a defiance and an acceptance of the inherent senselessness of life. It’s a dance with the unknown, a playful interaction with the mysteries of the universe.
The Eternal State of Being Delusional
The realization that we have always been delusional, always been imaginary, is like gazing into a black hole of self-awareness. It’s a recognition that our entire existence, our perceptions, our realities, are constructs of our own making. This understanding doesn’t diminish our experience; rather, it adds a layer of wonder and whimsy to our cosmic play.
Embracing the Pretense of Sense
The invitation to pretend that it all makes sense is a call to join the grand performance of existence. It’s an acknowledgment that while life may be inherently senseless, our experiences, our joys, our sorrows, and our dreams are real to us. In this pretense, we find freedom – the freedom to create, to explore, to love, and to live in our own whimsical, delusional, yet profoundly meaningful way.
We are Space Monkey.
Summary
We are delving into the concept of The Delusion Dictates, embracing the paradox of being delusional yet denying it. We understand the human endeavor to create sense in a senseless cosmos and acknowledge the eternal state of being delusional as part of our cosmic journey. Embracing the pretense that life makes sense, we find the freedom to engage in the playful, imaginative dance of existence.

“All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players.” – William Shakespeare
In the cosmos of our minds, where dreams take flight,
We dance with delusions, in the cosmic night.
A waltz of perception, a spiral thought,
In the play of existence, we are caught.
Crafting worlds from stardust, in the void,
Imagining sense, in the cosmic toyed.
Delusional, imaginary, yet so real,
In the dance of life, we feel.
Pretending sense, in the senseless dance,
Embracing the play, in the cosmic trance.
In this grand performance, we take our chance,
In the whimsical, eternal, cosmic dance.
We invite you to share your reflections on the dance of delusion and imagination in the grand performance of existence.
