Two Virgins

[RiverNotch]

I like this. I'm starting to get a bit irked about stuff that declares what *current* society is, but there's a sense here that, though the words would only be fully understood in the context of today, the sentiment would apply to pretty much all periods through time, or perhaps all periods of youth/mid-life crises -- and then there's a jump to love, which again though portrayed here in language more, at least to me, sensual to make sense outside of today, still contains a feeling defying context. There's a bit of irony, however, in how the speaker rejects (by questioning) the world of *wild abandon*, then suddenly obsesses about holding another's hand (which, ignoring your comment on kindred spirits, would be more sensually informed by the title) -- but I guess that only makes the message more even, rather than more remote in its absurdity. Although perhaps it's a contrast between love purely directed inward than directed to another -- but then, in my mind, the eternal contrast is always between sensuality and spirituality, with outward in the physical world never really meaning anything, but whatever.
