Any old orgasm carries with it a shredded scrap of euphoria, like the handkerchief in an old man’s suit. But only the unexpected erotic act bears the license for full-on transporting elation. Real 100% genuine accept-no-substitutes euphoria requires that experiencing something radical. It shakes the foundation. It creates question. It changes. It has made men cry….&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;…In your dark days, you can count these euphoric moments like rosary beads. The time you remained fully clothed as you carefully disrobed another laying waste to his jacket, his tie, his shirt, his shoes, his socks, his pants, his t-shirt and finally his man panties, until he lied on your bed like a creamy white éclair and then you ate him up, fucked and ate him until he swum in his own happy sauce. You recall the time you slowly fingerbanged this woman until the juice of her sloppy cunt ran dripping to your elbow, her pussy ululating like an anemone, her voice singing beatific songs. You summon the time you spread your ass and slowly, incrementally, lowered yourself onto a man’s cock with sadistic precision. You recollect the moment you and your lover spread yourselves across the sky and your celestial fucking made new worlds and fresh galaxies.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You remember the most recent euphoric gifting. A man on a bed, his face in the pillow, his hips canted up, his pelvis a bridge, his cock pointed down like a pillar, the air still with fierce expectation. You knelt behind him, placed a palm on his sacroiliac. You murmured something—anything—some platitude, and then you carefully shoved a hunk of metal into this man’s ass. You remember seeing this man’s body relax with a shudder as this not-quite-acknowledged fantasy suddenly appeared fully dressed like Athena from the brow of Zeus. You remember his ecstatic stillness, a quiet that belied the wild and the dancing and the insuperable pleasure and his unmistakable euphoria.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You liked it, this gifting, each and every time. You look to it in your solitude, and you look for it in your future. You know it’s more than erotic karma, it’s bigger than perverse power, it’s larger than your ego. You give this delirious gift, and you yourself are transported. You make this man, or that one, or maybe that woman come into something new, and you suffer a sudden apotheosis. You are a god.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Absolutely. Filthy. Fucking. Gorgeous. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you tuck the name of a loved one&lt;br/&gt;

it becomes blood&lt;br/&gt;

hiding everywhere&lt;br/&gt;
beneath your words.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No one sees&lt;br/&gt;
the fuel that feeds you.&lt;/p&gt;

And even though the world goes on for eons and eons, you are only here for a fraction of a fraction of a second. Most of your time is spent being dead or not yet born. But while alive, you wait in vain, wasting years, for a phone call or a letter or a look from someone or something to make it all right. And it never comes or it seems to but it doesn’t really. And so you spend your time in vague regret or vaguer hope that something good will come along. Something to make you feel connected, something to make you feel whole, something to make you feel loved. And the truth is I feel so angry, and the truth is I feel so fucking sad, and the truth is I’ve felt so fucking hurt for so fucking long and for just as long I’ve been pretending I’m OK, just to get along, just for, I don’t know why, maybe because no one wants to hear about my misery, because they have their own. Well, fuck everybody.
