As I sit in beautiful sunny Ohio, I am reflecting on my recent trip to Beltane in N. Maryland. I was thinking about the hot words we use, the power of words, the associations we have to words… and thus for this week’s Pieces of Passion I offer the following to enjoy: Pieces of Passion #13: Erotic Associations The rules are simple. Partner one begins with a word. Any word. Partner two responds with a word in response. The trick that takes it out of the ordinary ice-breaker game of word association? Make it sensual, sexual, naughty, or downright filthy.…

As I prep to head on my next trip, my bags are filling up with all sorts of odd objects 🙂 So after the hiatus, Pieces of Passion is back… with a fun game for my readers. Pieces of Passion #12 – The Object Guessing Game What is that? Can you figure it out? I love games in the bedroom from time to time, and one of my favorite over the years has been the Object Guessing game. Blindfold or put a hood on one partner. The other partner should have selected in advance a variety of objects, tools or…

So, I tried to spell check, and that was dumb. My machine tried to turn a Pineal Gland into a Pineapple Gland. I thus give you for my amusement…. Pineapple Gland Restoration In our day to day life, we can find ourselves over-exposing our pineapple glands. Near-colada experiences and over-exposure to teriyaki can leave us drained of our vital essences, and leave us, upon arriving at con-parties, unable to provide our own mixers. Thus, consider the wide and varied tools to help restore your pineapple gland: – Submersion in those that rely upon pineapple juice. This includes engaging in deep…

I find myself this weekend at Free Spirit Alliance’s Sacred Sexuality Beltane. Already I have debuted my newest class: “Desired Object, Forgotten Object: Objectification for Animists” that went really well, went to a lovely opening ritual, and went for a long hike through the woods to find an abandoned cabin overlooking the river where ravens were roosting before playing in the woods with my hiking companion… so, in honor of Beltane… Pieces of Passion Piece #11- Crazy Little Thing Called… Fucking Outside Cause it’s the first of May, first of May Outdoor fucking starts today So bring your favorite lady…

This Pieces of Passion is dedicated to my gypsy siblings S.J. Tucker and Catherynne M. Valente. In SF I performed to “Go Away Godboy” from Sirens, and this is Catherynne’s book Palimpsest, which spurred the train trip to New Orleans I took. Mmmmmm, trains. Pieces of Passion Piece #9 – Catch a bus! A train! A street car! A ferry! In the drive drive drive world, it’s hard to take in all of life when you are focusing energy on moving your one ton metal moving machine safely through the world (aka your car). Get out of the car, with…

MingDestiny and I just attended a fabulous class taught by Cleo Dubois and Eve Minax at the SF Citadel this evening. This Pieces of Passion is dedicated to those two hard working women in the world of Kink and Erotic Authenticity… Pieces of Passion Piece #8 Breathe Together We stood ten feet apart, facing away from one another, as Minax had us all breathe in time as we counted. One, belly expanding, in through nose, then out through relaxed lips. Two, belly expanding, in through nose, out through relaxed lips and belly contracting. Three, belly expanding, in through nose, out…

I have this book packed in my bag for my Service Slut and I to work on some more… Pieces of Passion Piece #7 Ask Some Quality Questions “It’s not that you got the wrong answer… I just didn’t get asked the right question I think.” One of my first partners said that to me one day, and I still think about it. We ask things of ourselves and our partners all the time like “how was your day” or “are you ok,” but they don’t really *ask* anything. So I’m working still on improving this idea of asking quality…

As I sit at home with my new TV (thank you Journeyman, what an amazing gift), I look around at my space, I pour myself a glass to drink and I was thinking about one of my favorite things to do… Pieces of Passion Piece #6 Have a Date with Yourself We live in a world where we are expected to socialize with, court, and seduce our partners- connect with them, engage with them, spoil them. But how can we possibly do that id we don’t know how to do that to ourselves? When was the last time you socialized…

This piece of passion is brought to you by the fact that I just fucked up on it, and called my Service Slut back, apologized to her, and while she laughed that it was no big deal I explained why I felt it was a big deal as I have no interest in the slippery slope… Pieces of Passion Piece #5 Pet Names and Protocols Names hold power. What we choose as pet names for our lovers, partner, and friends reflects our inner energetic feelings and manifestations of connection towards that person. Sometimes it is about the term/name chosen itself-…
