Song of Solomon
Sep. 4th, 2006 07:23 pmFinally! Some of the good sex I was promised was hidden somewhere in the bible. This book is totally worth reading but it may make you want to cover your body in oil and lie on satin sheets in a room thick with incense and be carassed either by your lover or your own hand.
No mention of this being at all sinful either. This is my favourite book so far by far! ^_^

Then, Jonathan took off his fancy clothes, even down to his underwear, and gave them to David. Then he handed David his big, hard sword and his long pointy bow. Because he loved him beyond, well over and above the love of women.
And yeah, Song of Solomon is the good stuff. His countenance is like the cedars of Lebanon. (wait a minute, we were at his hips. What face/head rides near the hips? Ahhh, ancient Hebrew woodies)

Yeah, because I make covenants with my best pals all the time, get naked, hand them vulva symbols and love them better than my husband... *snicker*
I used a bit from their parting in my novel. The boys have been raised in church-run reformatories.
“Yes.” Vlad was gasping for breath as the clever fingers worked him root to tip and back again. “Yes. Kissed, and wept and David exceeded, just like they always said.”
Nikolai snickered and pulled him closer. Vlad caught his mouth and kissed him hard and long.
