“La vita nuova”,....
Let the phrase roll meaningfully upon your lips, for it means “The New Life”, and encompasses the sexual, spiritual and emotional metamorphosis your soul will journey after a meeting with Ms.
The phrase is also the title of a work written around the year 1293 by Dante Alighieri, his famous ode to a love all too brief.
It expresses his feelings for Beatrice Portinari, who comes to represent for Dante the ideal woman.
The ideal woman.....how apt.
Dante toiled through the last chapter, determined to write “that which has never been written of any woman.”
So, here we are 727 years later and I find myself in a similar state of perplexity.
How do I write about a wonder that is best experienced rather than described?
How can my words capture the thrilling essence of Ms, the incomparable delight of her company?
“Beauty awakens the soul to act”, Dante once wrote, and so it was upon first instance of my sighting Ms, rare and intoxicating like a prowling snow leopard or darting Geisha of Kyoto, this breathtaking vision, a veritable blonde goddess, Aphrodite herself,...how could this treasure be experienced, be refused, be adored, I thought, and who am I to say no to the inevitable path ahead.
For once discovered, once sighted, how can one turn away?
Dante again speaks, “Do not be afraid; our fate cannot be taken from us; it is a gift.”
I was compelled, every instinct and flame of desire ablaze, to share an experience with Ms, moments so rare, so wonderful and so worth it.
Ms was of course everything the body lusts but beyond that she was, remarkably, everything the spirit requires to ease any doubt or fear.
She is pure heavenly goodness in bold sinful form.
Finally, Dante left us with, “Remember tonight... for it is the beginning of always”, and so were those wonderful few hours spent in Ms’s divine company, soothing embrace and lustrous intimacy.
....but don’t take my word for it, experience it yourself.
Be Dante.
Live while you can.
