I should probably explain my insight:
* The penis as ear, a standard metaphor.

In poring over Revelation, the seven letters
to the angels of the seven churches represent
seven coital situations in the life of a lamb,
which is an autofellator.

The speech act of autofellatio making penis an ear;
and the correspondance of mouth/vagina to eye/hole;
Wrap up all the complexity that is performativity:
Reading, Speaking, Hearing, Writing; self, other,
author, audience, subject, object;--all at once.

I, thou...
Here, there...
Now, then...
This, that...
Be Here Now! -Ram Das
The truth is neither this nor that (but both). -Dao.
Generation, death (Dickinson, bible, many others).

Yours truly,
Glenn Scheper
