S: It’s incredible when you think about it, isn’t it? The geometry of love.
A: Does love have a shape? And a geometry? That is news to me.
S: Of course it is. You are not a genius. It is an original thought from me.
A: And what is this original thought, Oh man of prodigious mind?
S: Look at the way in which we connect in love. The approach. That is the shape of love. You hug someone. When you do it, their body has to mirror yours. You open up your arms to approach them and to embrace them. When you kiss someone on the mouth, your lips approach the other in the same way, half open. Your lips mirror each other.
A: And sex?
S: I am not talking about the act and the execution. I am talking about the approach. The approach in sex is to kindle the flame on both sides. So that one flame is as hungry as the other. You look into their eyes. They look into yours. It is done through the look. The words. You say the words of seduction. They say the words of seduction. You stroke the flames. Blow for blow.
A: And then this idea of geometry?
S: Love can be theorised as mirror which reflects another mirror.
A: But then there is nothing. The mirror has no substance.
S: You are wrong. Then there is only light. That is what love is.
A: Does biology agree with you?
S: Let us turn to the act itself, which I did not introduce before. Did you know that the human animal which has procreative sex face to face is unusual in the animal kingdom? And it does so for some reason. Why not so it can see itself reflected in the eyes of its partner? Because that is one aspect of it. The mirror of the self. When you are looking in love into the eyes of the other, is it so you see yourself?
A: Speculation upon speculation.
S: No one understands love. But let us speculate. One day, when we comprehend the mirror neurons in the mind, I will be proven right, just like the Greeks were proven partially right about the atom. Without experiment and through simple observation and speculation.
