Nothing like the Last

11 Nov 2010

·J. Maw

Something must be said about the first, since by its nature takes the man unawares and knocks him off his feet, and whose balance must be gradually recovered, else the spin of the earth, its axis, and magnetic field may lead to serious complications. Such is the madness that scares men into wanting less, and scares women into underwhelming their potential; something must be said about the first, because though the blood pumps through the heart, it is not the elan vital of life, it is the vital force of love. Something must be said about the first kiss, it is unquenchable in its thirst, insatiating and unlike any hunger one could imagine, and turns men into loco pequenos monstruos, and is the reason women have no idea what they want. But there is nothing like the last kiss when you realize itcouldn't bebetter.
