"This is the first time that sex between two men has been written about in such detail and with such joy in the action, such positive affirmation. What other hope do gay men have at this brief moment in history if we cannot be open and honest?" I get together with another man for sex. I learn a lot by writing about each episode. I learn a lot from each encounter and each man and I relish meeting the men I have sex with. Frank introduced the concept of difference. Each of our partners is different. Relishing and appreciating, capturing in an appreciative way, the nature of that difference has become one of the tests for these episodes. The men I have sex with are angelic presences of immanent power and potency, like those angels Rilke announces at the beginning of the 'Duino Elegies', pressing close, embracing us, with their message of terror, a vital terror of immediacy. The episodes are vital episodes in our lives which deserve to be appreciated and that means they will become the subject of artistic work.So it does not feel like a betrayal of any sort or immoral to write about our sexual escapades.
