I posed the question in my last post about how to reconcile the lyrical romantic with the fuck everything epic.
The positions are in conflict and I think it has a lot to do with the conflict of the subjective and the objective. Reconciling the lyrical and epic as an individual is simple when you are by yourself. You know what is happening to you objectively (externally) and subjectively (internally). Add a few people to the mix and it gets confusing in a fucking hurry.
Example:
Objective Erotic Epic Moment:
She slid into bed, her sheer 1970 style teddy, allowing the brown of her nipples and the hair of her bush to show through. His cock slowly begins to rise. Another, totally naked woman is moving into bed, right behind the first, her hands curl up around the nipples peaking through the teddy. A fourth man stands at the side of the bed, naked, his cock is at full attention.
The women push the man on the bed to his back, the first wraps her mouth around his cock and begins to suck and he hardens under her saliva and spit, as the teeth drag along the underside. The other woman straddles the mans face, cramming his nose into her cunt and begins riding her clit on his chin. The man on the bed, fully erect now, is mounted by the woman in the teddy. The two women, now facing each other, begin sucking on the other man's cock together.
This is a typical objective erotic moment. The objective potential for arousal for any of the participants is quite clear. This is the epic lover scenario, fucking the world and leaving no cock un-sucked and un-fucked and no cunt un-licked and un-penetrated.
Subjective Erotic Lyrical Moment:
The world transforms as I slide my cock into her. The physical sensation pales in comparison to the shift in breathing, her touch and the connection I feel with her at that moment. Her skin feels like home and it is in fact my home. The scent of our combined sexual smells wafts up from under the sheets with each thrust. I pull my tongue over my lips and taste again her cunt nectar from my earlier licking and sucking. As her pleasure noticeably increases, I move unconsciously in the way I know she likes, because we have done this act so very many times. Her response feels immediate and as her breathe increases, her hips buck and her eyes roll back and her whole body quivers, I know I have given her what she wants and that far exceeds the eventual tingle up the spine and explosion that will end this experience for me.
Now, for why reconciling the two is so difficult. Humans can't read minds or thoughts. What happens when the subjective moment is combined with the objective moment described above?
The world transforms as I slide my cock into her. I can only grasp at her sides and feel the strange scent of a foreign cunt invading my senses as another woman presses her cunt into my face. Yet, I feel the excitement in her as she rides me, the juices sluicing and running down under my balls. The overwhelming erotic nature of this encounter with two other people is impacting her as well and from the feel of her body, I can tell that it is arousing for her. The woman on my face rises up a little to re-adjust and I see both women's mouths on the other cock. I am at home with this woman riding my cock. Her sexuality and lust for flesh matches mine, exceeds mine and through it all we remain connected, even more deeply connected than before.
This is the lyrical/epic version, but it is fraught with problems. Three other people are simultaneously have a subjective experience and it may be completely different than the subjective experience of the male narrator. In the passionate embrace of two, all the attention can be focused on the other (although this is so fraught with problems that a couple of thousand years of tortured lyrical poets can attest to the inability of even two humans to match their subjective intensity). Add two other people to the mix and the potential for miscommunication expands the permutations of possible results to a minimum 14, assuming that there is only two potential emotional response per person.
The number of possible combinations of emotional responses a group of four, epic sex of the foursome variety means that it is almost guaranteed that someone's subjective experience will not be wholly pleasant and erotic.
Fortunately, besides being endowed with marvelously sensitive genitalia, humans have been given the capacity for language and the capacity for honesty. Honest language is ultimately the only way to resolve the conflict of the epic and the lyrical in the erotic. Probably why Kundera writes novels.
