What--Are we talking about Nabokov or Shade here?

I know all sexuality is under interdiction. And AF/AC is
an especial taboo.--I say for the fact that they are the
sexuality of divinity. But who is more moral than Jesus?

Further, I have not determined whether this knowledge is
didactic, can be taught discursively, or only effective
if biologically / quantum mechanically / enacted bodily.
It is possible that one well-schooled could infer these
same things from poets' and prophets' semi-veiled works.

Further, I see a totalizing, re-reading, historicizing
tendency of pattern-matching in some writers whose works
do not display the complete range of decodable tantrika.
So, when AF first opens the words of Jesus to re-reading,
one wants to map all works onto this too-narrow referent.

I think Baudelaire mentioning Lethe shew such ignorance,
and many who ascribe androgyny to this state do err, for
that is only after further steps. (See Heroic Alterity.)

But another aspect of divinity appears to be conferred
by an originary virginal very first nocturnal emmision
irrigating the navel, which is the reward of innocence.
(Cf. Buddha born of a lotus arising from Vishnu's navel,
and Pynchon's Golden Screw joke.) From this state, one
male can operate in all of the four normal male states,
having a new type of self-as-parent-of-self redundancy.

So while there will always remain culturally inculcated
shame, there is no guilt in the fully cognizant abject.

Yours truly,
