two become one

25.11.2025

S: It is a curious dance, isn’t it?

A: A rhetorical question? What do you speak upon?

S: You hold hands. You caress the fingers and the palms. Skin brushing against skin. You embrace them and hold them tight. You never want to let go, their body on yours. Lips on lips, tasting their life…

A: The ships colliding, you speak on this? What is so curious about it?

S: It is two becoming one.

A: Connection is what life is about.

S: But in this culture of atoms, of autonomy and independence, of individualism, is it not a paradox that two become one?

A: But is it not the case that it is the rule of the one here? Therefore if two become one, they can be ruled?

S: There may be that in what you say. But if the rules of the two that become one are idiosyncratic, how can they be ruled? Because a general rule relies on general application, not the specific. The global and not the local.

A: You concentrate on two becoming one.

S: I am concentrating upon it. My other duties are piling up.

A:

two become one

the field of energy is multiplied

two gazes

two bodies

one passion meets another

match for match

touch for touch

together against the stone
