Time Travel: Onboarding and Initiation
Only those who stood within the shift
remember. You weren't there
and still believe this power will free us.
We wanted to be like God. We wanted
to be better. It wasn't enough.
Â
Our arms spread out within spacetime
above the bright dome of creation. The tapestry
of moments unfurled into a path to walk.
It seemed evil to resist the temptation
to pluck a thread. We started with Hitler.
He is now dust and less than dust—forgotten,
and you can't understand. So, forgive us
for not encouraging you to overthrow
the Solidarity of Australia to stop Rupert Murdoch
from being born. It is as fruitless
as the barren wasteland of Europe. So, no,
you can't pull the threads. You cannot
kill your Grandfather. It was all in the orientation.
