When we are imagining things that are not part of our experience, or our capacity for logical integration, it becomes a phantasmagoria. Basically I am imaging a linguistic idea. Language is a superset that sits upon our experience and allows us to imagine abstract ideas outside of what we think we know. Language (by distancing us from what is proximate to the real) has been the proffered surety of a history of human madness which stuns the senses.

So yes--I was imagining it the way you were--as a possibility...
