Love Letter. To Kissing, Maybe.

I used to say that you can tell a story with a kiss, that kissing is a form of communication.  Or communion.  There are exploring kisses that say I want to know every corner of your body and your soul (mmmmm); there are I-want-to-fuck-you kisses (mmmmm); and there are half-assed, soul-less, empty kisses that say everything in their nothingness.

And then there are kisses that last three days.

Kissing for three days. There is a breath-catching speech in Bull Durham about kissing for three days.  Here it is:

Annie: What do you believe in?

Crash: Well, I believe in the soul. The cock. The pussy. The small of a woman’s back. The hanging curveball. High fiber. Good scotch. That the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a Constitution Amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas eve. And I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days…Goodnight. [He exits]

Annie (with a voice that could melt butter): Oh my.

Oh my, indeed.

PS yes, there is a point to this. It is not all titillation and indulgence (though that’s most of it.) I’ll post The Point tomorrow.

  1. Who needs a point? Here’s the best relationship therapy in the world:

    Get in the car with your loved one and drive to a secluded area. Stay in your seats and kiss for one hour. Plenty of touching, but not boobs or errr other main bits – just faces, arms and legs (not too high now).

    After one hour, compose yourselves, take some deep breaths and head back to work / home.

    If you’re a blogger you’ll write your best stuff ever after one of these sessions. Oh, and you’ll have amazing sex later that evening as well.
