"Sex" is a state of grace

Wild things in captivity
while they keep their own wild purity
won't breed, they mope, they die.

All men are in captivity,
active with captive activity,
and the best won't breed, though they don't know why.

The great cage of our domesticity
kills sex in a man, the simplicity
of desire is distorted and twisted awry.

And so, with bitter perversity,
gritting against the great adversity,
they young ones copulate, hate it, and want to cry.

Sex is a state of grace.
In a cage it can't take place.
Break the cage then, start in and try.


D. H. Lawrence

I am the lion who knows the dance. The lionesses watch me sleek and strong- my movement captivates and arouses their senses. . . they desire the dance; romance. I may be the last place on earth where this woman can submit her self direction and be rewarded with immediate gratification. My nature is released as a gentleman; the strong and the silent. The woman’s nature is released- accepting my hand. . . and following, for one brief dance, where ever I may take her- for a walk? For a dance?

Magnificent, Roberto!

The 'boogey-man' being a member of the Pookha rebellion? In everyday parlance I see this all the time. 'Troll' is another one.
