i take it back, sexual contact can be a mere physically
conscious basis of other inter subjective states of mind.
the sexual embrace doesn't have to be the central play,
if you are either in a more subtle love state or else even
"working" spiritually on cosmically conscious embrace.
well if you're just wanting to fuck then that's a splash
of freezing holy water on the fire of lust, not pleasant.
sometimes the imaginative additions and physically
applied technique are all just about dirty old fashion
sex in the end but we add to it because we're crazy
humans with strange tastes and inventions, and we
are unable to stay interested in what we used to be
all about, back in them days of history and our lives.
