“For mediocre lovers, it is easier to spurt and shimmy away sexual energy than it is to open their internal knots, which would allow their energy to circulate in a much more profound and blissful depth. Loosening… knots releases the fear stored within them. Mediocre lovers are afraid of letting go… Beyond sheer enjoyment, sexual occasions of 45 minutes or more are often necessary for opening the body and heart to the fullest potential of human love and intimate communion.”

“

i like my body when it is with 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 its 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-is-it comes
over parting flesh … And eyes big love-crumbs,

and possibly i like the thrill

of under me you so quite new

Visitors to Mildred’s Temple Kitchen, a restaurant in Toronto, Canada, are invited to spice up their love life this Valentine’s Day with a trip to the bathroom.

‘Have you given any thought to moving beyond the bedroom?’ patrons were asked in a not-too-subtle promotional e-mail.

The individual bathrooms will be open for sexual escapades from the 12-15th February. According to the manager, Rory Gallagher, a french maid will be working the toilets, making sure everything is ‘going smoothly and kept clean.’

‘We’ve always had little trysts in our bathrooms,’ co-own’r Donna Dooher told The Toronto Star. ‘We’re taking it to the next level on Valentine’s weekend.’ She added that customers are expected to bring their own condoms.

Perhaps surprisingly, Toronto’s Public Health food safety program manager said the restaurant wasn’t breaking any laws as long as there’s no intercourse in the kitchen and the bathrooms are kept clean.

‘As far as bodily fluids, it’s pretty much similar to the other human functions going on in there,’ said Chan, slightly undercutting the erotic value of the venture.
