The Price of A Nut

Here's where the female's infinite supply of orgasms fails: they'll never know the value of one. I didn't do anything today that made me suddenly value my one pump squirt approach to climaxing, but I did think about the relative calm that comes afterwards. In the quiet, every man becomes a rocket scientist. We are MENSA members. We are board certified, NASA astrophysicist smart.

The weight of the world is lifted, and goddamned if the stars don't line up just right to give us second sight. We divide our thought between what we want and what we know.

Every second before is leading up to what we think we want. It's tough, riding the bullet, because it's an amalgamation the things we don't want to admit. Maybe too many of the secrets come spilling out of the closet. Cosplay? Fat Asians? Toothpaste? Sure!

Done.

Suddenly our IQ's quadruple, and it becomes about what we know. We rationalize. Realize. Experience epiphany after epiphany. Then we shamefully accept it all. We understand the logistics to every problem ever befallen us. We see the fallibility in existence. We accept the crooked frame work and twisted design of life, and admit its impossibility.

That's the sad truth. The price of a nut is instantaneous, total genius. What a load to saddle. Maybe we get ten seconds of it, maybe twenty, but it's enough to understand life in total. Why? Because in the brevity of aftersex, we are concerned with everything but the task at hand.

Don't mock me - cosmic realizations occur in this moment. Don't ever think you know what a guy is thinking in the afterwards. Even if he says "That I've never been this happy before", he is thinking about why everything sucked so badly in order to make that statement true. He's just saying it in a really nice way.

Consider Atlas, who bore the weight of the world, and was only being given a moments rest by Hercules. All men, in the afterglow, are a Titan who's curse has been lifted. It's great to be able to stretch out for a moment and see things as how they are, and not how we hold them to be.

Reminders for class: Homework assignment. Crank one out. Write your thoughts in a journal. Tomorrow, we'll have the girls compare with the boys and see who had the more philosophical thoughts.
