Wound Licker
And why is love so impossible and yet so desirable a quest? Well impossible it is because you always have to give more love in order to get any love, that always places the lover at a disadvantage for according to even your friend the clown to get 100% love from another one must give 200% so that means that love is not only not free but awfully expensive too. Particularly dangerous as well because if you are giving 100% love that is not even the point of reciprocation, it is only the possible beginning of receiving love so at 101% of giving love you begin to receive 1% love that is a horrid equation. Primarily because any time in the 100% category the lover is severely exposed to a non loving environment and thus extremely vulnerable. (The equation does not allow for any accumulation under 100% so at 10% you don’t get 5%.) This is how it happens to be that you can love people that really do not love you. And then there is the issue of maintaining that love and in an ideal situation love is forever but by the Clowns own calculations the expenditure of energy to maintain a loving relationship is so tremendous that it expedites entropy to critical dimensions. Passion is just the exhaustive energy of love in fusion, that is two individuals pounding each other into each other. Passion creating more chaos in the universe and increasing the disorderliness’ of the universe around the lovers in a magnified order. And all that might produce a life which is fairly remarkable.
So the lovers actually increase entropy and as such are a danger to anything outside of their own sphere So the logical reaction of anything outside of the love circle, and a healthy one at that, is to attempt to destroy the lovers union, to separate them. And in a material world this dynamic has to be more deliberate for the existence of matter depends on order and it is not a very sentimental order it is just anti chaos at any cost. So imagine the impossibility: first you have to give all this love without knowing if you are going to be joined in love, then if it occurs your alliance with your lover will increase entropy to passionate proportions, and sense you are composed of an orderly cell structure this is not in your best interest, and add to that gravy the fact that your love merely causes the entire universe to focus on destroying it and the incalculable then comes to mind. Love is impossible and if it is possible it is destructive and being in love is the most dear condition in the universe and so we should want it to last for ever for the lovers in their passionate embrace do not much care about anything around them. And since this is in keeping with the escapist mondus operandis of life it is the ideal. But again, and not to spoil your appetite, love generates an opposing alliance because it consumes the external and as such it can not endure. So next time someone tells you that they will love you forever, tell them that forever is just a long time...
But why the madness? Well because if love requires that we give so much of ourselves and that through that we enter extreme modes of self and mutual deception, then love is the unselfish thing in the universe and if love is really this unselfish thing then it has to be the most desirable which maybe exactly why we reach out to be loved by someone that does not need to love us. We want an act of kindness, a selfless act that in the end promises to love us regardless of how undesirable we might be and that is selfless and altruistic. And sense the universe is absolutely selfish, absolutely self centered, subjective to the core then the objectification of that universe and thus the creation of an altruistic universe is the ultimate.
But even the least selfish thing in a selfish universe is the most selfish thing. There are no degrees of selfishness love is as selfish as everything else and in life we are either absolutely selfish or dead. But most important is that love is the attempt by the self to be loved by someone that has no reason to love us, we know our parents and siblings can not save themselves from loving us, we know our children need desperately to love us, but to be loved by someone that has no interest in us, that needs nothing from us, now that would be genuine love. And it is not without supreme tragedy that we fall out of love when we suddenly find that we need one another. Oh but to be loved away from want and need what a dream.
The idea that love is in anyway selfless is unfortunately absurd, we are still at the stage where hunger rules our passion, love is actually more selfish than everything, because it demands that someone love us unconditionally for merely who we are, that they give us their soul for no apparent reason, lovers cry: "Do not need me, choose me." But our universe is selfish and based on codependency and you know that more or less doesn’t happen in selfishness so in the end love is just the poison of abuse by the self of another.
And don’t forget the other problem which I have pointed to before and will repeat again: The heart is an organ that like any muscle grows when used, so the more you love the bigger your heart gets, and the bigger your heart gets the more insatiable your hunger for love becomes, and the bigger your heart gets then fewer and fewer people will fit there, so the more you love the less your chances are of finding love.
Here again not enough credit is given to the Clown for his linguistic formulas were applicable at the emotional level. They could measure human emotion something that science with all its mathematical precision has been quite incapable of doing. Granted that the Square Root of Pi surfed on irrational passions, and the concept of infinity was religious, and averages about averages were a leap of faith if not an out right violation of probable reality, but only the Clowns formulas could arrest the subject of love only his formulas could ascertain with precision the meanings of maybe numbers.
I must confess at this time that I myself believed that love is such a fickle fellow that even if we knew the ingredients of love, their proportions and appropriate mixture we would still be unable to make it happen.
