🌱 we corkscrew through space and time

This idea has been rattling around my brain for a while, but I’ve struggled to put it into words (though I did my best for the alt-text below). Is it a poem? An idea? A model of the world? All three? I present, perhaps, a visual poem:

Two vertically-stacked diagrams, between the two the highlighted text "we corkscrew through space and time". The top diagram has Saggitarius A (the black hole in the center of the Milk way) in the center. It shows the sun orbiting around the black hole and slowly being sucked in, with us orbiting the sun. It shows our resulting path, labeled "we corkscrew through space". The bottom diagram shows a three-dimentional graph. The x-axis: time. The y axis: trust & cooperation vs fear & isolation. The z axis: liberalism vs fascism. It shows our path through this graph, a corkscrew tunneling down the x-axis towards the end of time. Our path is labeled "history rhymes." Again, the center title between these two graphs: "We corkscrew through space and time."
