A Natural History of the Senses by Diane Ackerman is the best book I've read since Fox in Socks . I don't usually read many books, but I bought it today, and I've been devouring it all evening. She evokes such feelings with her words. The world is becoming a different place. A wicked excellent read, if I do say so myself.

And the very fun e. e. cummings poem "96" is in there:

i like my body when it is iwth your
body. It is so quite new a thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body. i like what it does,
i like how it hows. i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones, and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which i will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like, slowly stroking the shocking fuzz
of your electric fur, and what-it-is comes
over parting flesh. . . . And eyes big big love-crumbs,

and possibly i like the thrill

of under me you so quite new


I looove that!

Grrrrreat!
