It's
all in the timing, wouldn't you say?
If
time worked backwards, why would it ever want to go forwards? Forward
motion is not where it's at, at all! If it was, we would not spend half
our time wishing for some halcyon past and the other half fearing some
future apocalypse. (Actually, I like Jack Kirby's spelling: "Apokalips."
Sort like somebody named Apoka had really nice lips. Maybe she did.)
You
see, time is what we have as a gift, but it works backward -- because
our world is upside down from the real world. So we move in opposite
synchrony from the other end of the infinite ellipse (Elli's lips? OK,
n-e-v-e-r m-i-n-d ... .) That's right, our world is fake -- a backwards
and upside down imitation of the real one. So to move forward in time,
we're actually moving backward (with respect to the real world), and to
move backward (only in daydreams) we must move forward (in the same
respect to reality).
This
is so: when we move back in time in daydreams, we must extrapolate a
fake future and impose it on the past to make it seem like a lost
paradise. It never really happened (of course not -- nothing we do or
remember ever does), so we impose in our minds an unreal set of
assumptions about how good it was way back then compared to now (Now is a
fraud, of course. Stay with me here. Or leave.). And we do the same for
the future ("It's just going to be horrible!").
Sometimes
reality rips into Fraudworld: chaos invades and (of course) looks like
streamlined organization, disasters actually happen (instead of
nonactuallynothappening) and are made much worse by our incompetence
(which would be competence if our spacetimedimensionworld actually
worked in true forwardfuturepastnonreversemotiontimespace). This can be
seen from the doublereverse negations I just used -- those offer the
potential for reality intrusion.
That's
why we must follow our hearts but watch our steps. You never know for
sure which direction you're moving in.
