62. Deathrow High

I feel sexy! The stereo is on and I’m riding on the wings of the song. U2’s Elevation blasted with conviction, and I feel like I can fly so high. My newfound gift is so exotic that I was taken totally by surprise to see how natural it was for me to move fluidly. Suddenly I understood what Jesus meant when he said, “Unless you are born again you will never see the kingdom of God.” Paul’s statement on being a new creation also reeled up sense. I’d crucified the frigid old man; and the new guy around is kicking up a pleasure of a storm. It’s like I’m born again…I’m saved! And like any new convert, I feel that it is my duty to spread the ‘Good News.’ My obvious target is Su Leng; I could pass this gift to her and make her glad.

So I debated whether I should. I could choose to drive up north, but I decided otherwise, for I’m expecting Ai Leen soon. I’d given her the key and she’s about to arrive. Regardless, I continued to jive and cared less if a meteorite came crashing through the roof.

With eyes shut, my body moved, and in my mind’s eye I saw a vision of myself in the heavens, speeding across the galaxy in hyperdrive. Freedom…I owned freedom. Then I was dancing in the midst of bare breasted, funky alien babes. My muscles flexed to the rhythm of a sex symbol, and I seduced them ET chickies. But I wasn’t excited…rather, I was blissful…and it was such a wonderful feeling…such a wonderful, wonderful feeling. I jumped and I jumped like a frenzied teddy till tears streamed down my cheeks. The salty liquid had an essence of emancipation as it touched my lip. I tasted with the wide array of an artiste’s palette, and I came. I cried and I cried and I sobbed. With the Irish band’s All That You Can’t Leave Behind playing the backdrop to this emotional encounter, I collapsed to my knees and entertained the water from my eyes. It was unbelievable! Fucking unbelievable!

I was so taken in that I was not aware of Ai Leen’s entrance. She responded with shock to see me snivelling on the floor. I, however, was just enjoying the moment.

“Baby…?” she called out to me, confused and concerned, “…what’s wrong?”

“What?” I snapped out of trance. Clearly, she’d taken me by surprise…but…I wasn’t embarrassed like I imagined I would. On any other occasion there would be nowhere to hide; but here, I cared less. The power working on me was overwhelming, yet comforting, that the ego could be chucked out. I wouldn’t worry if I had to howl in front of the world. Let them see; I am at peace.

“Baby,” she asked again, “what’s wrong?”

I didn’t say a word. Instead I smiled and motioned for her to kneel by my side. She did. And as she got down into my waiting arms, she wiped my moist façade. She was silent…

Slowly, I kissed her…passionately…intensely…deeply…voraciously. And we made out right there in that frozen moment of time where eternities were formed. Ai Leen bursts out like a fountain, which further aggravated my ferocity. We were like a mating hybrid of dragon and phoenix, for she recognized my emotional charge and ate it from my lips. It was so good to have another person sharing your joy…knowing exactly what was going through your soul and taking it to interpret as her own. There was a connection; we made love…the best we ever had.
