For the uninitiated, you're about to read chapters 5 - 8 of a book that started two posts ago, so if you want to start from the beginning go here - http://spunoutpost.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/love-story.html And I'm not sure I'm going to continue with this concept, because I seem to have lost most of my readers along the way. In fact, I'm pretty sure that this is the end. If you were one of the five readers who really loved this, then email me and we'll work out how to get you a copy.
CHAPTER 5 - Tremble in your arms.......
And that’s when it happened.
The folding of faces and layers to sex and dark and skin warmth. All of their best was tangled with blessings
and tranquillity. All of their worst was
loved and acknowledged, seen for it’s heartache and seamlessly healed.
They saw all within. The
maiden the youth, the mother the father, the crone the wizened, the rapist the
victim, the phallus the cunt[1],
the father the daughter, the mother the son, the despair the elation, the
sacred the profane, all interchangeable, all connected, all within.
And the interchangeable bits became so distractingly quick in their
flux that the spin was dizzying. Then
the flickering slowed to deep moving waters of connection and sanction. Belying all with the rocking uterine waters
of the mother, seared by the phallus of the consort in deepening thrusts.
They fucked and sucked, kissed and slid, giggled and moaned. He travelled her soft skin and supped her
sweet nipples. She folded him into her
warmth. He filled her inside in every
way possible, sexual and spiritual, slow and quick. She dragged him with her to spiralling
heights to see the terrain below.
And around and behind them sat hordes of ancestors, divided they
died, and united to watch. To see this marriage
of death and life, polarities melded within.
[1] Cunt: Contrary to
popular belief, this is not a derogatory name to denigrate a woman and her
genitalia. It’s actually derived from
the Oriental Great Goddess Cunti, or Kunda, the Yoni of the Universe. Also the root of words such as cunning, ken,
cunicle ( a hole or passage ), cunctipotent ( having cunt magic ), county,
kind, and often synonymous with woman, though not in the insulting modern
sense. In pagan Europe there were many
shrines dedicated to female genitalia which Medieval clergymen called cunnus
diaboli, or ‘devilish cunt’. For more
information read the entry ‘Cunt’ in ‘The Women’s Encyclopedia of Myths and
Secrets’ by Barbara G. Walker.
“Who are you?” he asked.
“I’m magenta flowing life, streaming through the gaps and silky
touching the fibres of people around me.
Inspiration and magical interlude.
Ancient past and new born babe.
Wearer of many faces and lifetimes, stories and memories, smiles and
tears.”
“Who are you?” she spoke back.
He kept up his gaze in her eyes.
Dark pool eyes. Endless reaching
eyes. He looked into her and murmured...
“I’m the dancer the laugher, the raper the light bringer, the
wounder the wounded, the husband the lover, the violated the desexed, the bull
and the blade.....”
She watched him as he talked.
Long velvet, dark hair, curled down a shoulder hollow. Lean frame draped on the bed. Hard line of muscle smoothed by soft satin
hollows. Grey blue eyes, holding grief
and wisdom. Elegant line of lip, over a
fine bone sculpted chin.
She caught her breath and gently closed her eyes.
“I think I’ve known you before.”
CHAPTER 7 - Clouds, all are clouds......
Aware their time was limited, they exchanged as many signposts of
their lifescapes as they could.
Not that long ago, she’d sat on Sunset Rock, curved in a hollow of
craggy ore, feeling herself drawn into the valleys and cliffs and vista’s
before her. She’d stared at a cloud and
made it dissolve. Stared at it so long
and intensely, and imagined it melting till it did indeed start to disappear. It wisped away before her eyes, and left no
trace of it’s visit. She moved her gaze
to a larger cloud, and it happened also the same. Then a larger cloud still, and it melted away
to pre-existence. It was only when she’d
thought to herself...
“How can I do this?” that she found she couldn’t melt clouds
anymore.
He’d spent a time at a night club on peyote, and become so involved
in new views perceived, that he changed his form to become life force. He’d moved his life force into a stranger’s
body, speeding through veins and blocks, knot muscle and grief, till that body,
as he watched from the outside, became looser and taller and cleaner. Amazed by the outcome he’d moved into others,
to melt through and unblock, feeling awesomely charged by his pursuits.
And inbetween all these stories shared and pictures drawn they kept
up their loving. Trying new poses and
angles, movements and moist. They
entered the realm of an infinite world where past becomes present and futures
diverse.
CHAPTER 8 - Back to the outside
It was time to part. Dawn
struggled it’s way through the steely clouds to warm the currents. He wasn’t as free as her. There were other lives he was dancing in,
that weren’t quite ready to loose hold.
And he still had warfare’s, and bloodshed, to try and repair. He was still God in some circles, that he had
to remain in, till a gentle extraction was hailed. But he knew he had found his sign. He knew now where to aim his bow.
She on her part, had already travelled the masculine lands of
destruction and blood, had driven deep down in it, and tasted the air there,
sucked it in deep, and let it form itself in her words and tongue. She’d cowered under the harsh rule, and
licked her anger down. As she’d been
slave in that world, she understood him intimately. Far more than he ever knew. Being slave made it easier for her to drop
that role, and step into another. Far
easier than forgoing the role of God.
And now she’d lost the skins she’d used to view him, he stood out beyond
them, resplendent and new.
So they found it hard to part.
They held swift to mere distractions and whimsy’s, to cling to their
time in the room. The ancestors watching
began to leave. The main course was
over, they were off for desert.
“When will I see you again?” he asked her.
“When you can I’ll be ready.
I’ve been waiting so long for you to see me truly, that any time now is
timeless. When you’re free come to me,
but you must surely be free, for I’m not keen to feel pain again.”
They held onto each other as long as they dared, and even outside,
in the cool morning light, they clung to what moments were left. No promises, no treaties, just a silent
agreement that what had been shared was sacred.
