tune

Synonyms: tunes

Preanalysis assumption: “Tune” obviously belongs to the group of terms that take in the sphere of sound and hearing. It may be asked what sound effects could possibly occur during the intravaginal happenings of intercourse. None, of course. Yet was she compelled to include this group within the vocabulary of her secret language. Not because she needed them really to describe actions of the inner poem, for that she had plenty of symbols at her command, although, of course, she could well use additional ones for the sake of diversification and preservation of the esoterics of her secret language, which would come in danger of being penetrated, if too much repetitions of the same symbols should occur in her poetry. The real need for the group of soundsymbols arose in the construction of the outer poems. As she was compelled to include ever more phenomena of nature and of human life within the set of parables and similes which she invented for her doubletalk on matters sexual, she came under compulsion to introduce such phenomena in their sound effects also, if such were a peculiar characteristic of them. To give one example: if an extension of the flag symbol (a pole with something fluttering from it, to wit: penis in ejaculation) leads her to the variant of the church steeple from which the bells toll, then a need might occur, in the outer poem, to use terms of sound and hearing. In the course of the secret language’s development hundred of such particular needs arose, and it would be quite a study in itself to follow out the strange runes each of these needs created. The more this secret language proved itself a healthy, lusty, living organism capable of infinite development, the wider tentacles it would send out into all fields of nature and of life, for its parable, simile materials. The sphere of sound was only one of many. To come down to the particular term “tune”, it stands symbol for a metered, rhythmic expression of pleasurable sensations of some length or duration, and as such is particularly suitable for symbolizing penis in ejaculation. The quanta emission provides meter and the piston push of the fondling phase that preceded it, would have rhythm, and synchronization besides, with the fondling motions of the vagina. Whatever other allusions may be found in this symbol “tune”, the analysis ought to bring out.
