A kind of a "dangerous supplement", marked, scarred on a body, post-orgasmically, always, already in anticipation of (a) crisis OR for a desert avec 'agape'. Mindb(l)ogg(l)ing Noise. "Avalanche, would you share my last pursuit?" (Baudelaire)

Afierwmeno ap' ta spirometers twn minwn

A touching and marvellous ingenuity
Such as you see only in [the faces of] angels in holy pictures
Imitates the cheek where the smile makes a hollow.


Arthur Rimbaud, from Les Stupra*, (trans. Oliver Bernard, 1962)


*Stupra(Latin): defilements, pollutions by lust
