The Climax

It

is where

everything comes to a head.

The focus, the coming-together, the climax.

It does have a unique feeling. Of anticipation, of arousal, of the pause before…

the new emerges. But what? The Climax is another way of directing attention, like the concentric circles

of a nipple, or the cleavage between two spheres pressed together. It is a pyramid, or rather, the point of a pyramid or a triangle…

or a nipple or an eye… where they lead to a point in the centre, instead of at the top. And in the cleavage, the curves of the two

domes either side, which lead to the cusp of a hollow triangle. And it has equivalent in sound, in the pregnant pause…

before a new motif emerges from a surging introduction, it is in the passage leading to a caesura.

And it has its equivalent in touch... Try it on your partner… tell them to shut their

eyes, then run a finger lightly over their body towards…

then lift it off and pause. That’s the feeling.

And it’s there in every

sense…

…do I have your attention?
