a deepening wound
As pleasure ceases to be the response to the individual’s desire and excessively exceeds this desire, it simultaneously exceeds individual being and replaces it with a shifting - a kind of radiant, excessive suspense connected with a feeling of nakedness and entering into the open nakedness of the other person. such a state assumes nakedness as being present, as being absolutely there, and it does this by way of an innocent if skillful contact - although the skill i refer to doesn’t belong to hands or bodies. it seeks intimate knowledge of nakedness - knowledge of the wound of physical being - whose opening deepens with each contact.

Nietzsche and Sasha, what a combination. I think I might be in love with both.
