Hugs Are Zen

And the Earth spins round
While the people fall down
And the world stands still
Not a sound, not a sound
There is love, there is love
To be found
In the worst way, in the worst way
In the worst way

It’s the buzz, it’s the buzz
It’s the buzz
It’s the buzz, it’s the buzz
I wish I was
It’s the buzz, it’s the buzz
It’s the most fuzz

From a little shell
At the bottom of the sea
Was the Earth and the Moon
And the Sun above me
But the world fell down
With some people still around
There is love, there is love
To be found
With the Gods all gone
And the souls making sounds

In the worst way, in the worst way
In the worst way
It’s the buzz, it’s the buzz
It’s the buzz
It’s the buzz, it’s the buzz
I wish I was
It’s the buzz, it’s the buzz
It’s the most fuzz

From a little shell
At the bottom of the sea
Was the Earth and the Moon
And the Sun around me
There is love, there is love
There is love
It’s a buzz, it’s a buzz
It’s a buzz
It’s the buzz, it’s the buzz
I wish I was
It’s a buzz, it’s a buzz
It’s a buzz

I crave affection. Mass. Amounts. You're thinking Big Gulp, I'm thinking Ocean.
Not attention.
I do not need your entire being devoted to me. I don't want all your time, energy, effort or emotions.

I just need you to touch me. Not hug, cuddle, kiss, fuck, bite, fight, prod, etc. Just the connection of casual contact. I am happiest the most when such employed. I don't care if it is just the touch our legs might share as we sit together on the couch. And I don't need you to be my lover.
I am a kitty, and we kitties loooooooove the affection. Oh we feign indifference and pretend we don't care. But we are thoroughly profound and adept actors.

My happiest moments are when sitting near my friends and they just lean into me. Casual. Affectionate. I need this. I need to be close to someone. Especially those I love. I have been labeled as very flirtatious because of this, and quite frankly my dear - I don't give a damn.
I am a misanthrope. We don't befriend you. We adopt your sorry ass! Some of us find it necessary to function only within the small family unit we build - a kithkin relationship. Others like to acquire and nurture the family unit, but also seek to find others for suitable amounts of entertainment. I try to keep my "kittens" touchy-feely - or at least accustomed to random accosts by me.

I will take my affection anyway I can get it. Weather it be in subjugating myself to someone's footwarmer or on the receiving end of a shove. You can smack me, pinch me, poke me, stab me, bite me, kiss me, breathe me in, sit on me, sit with me, touch me, stroke me, draw on me, wash my hair, brush my hair, scratch my head, tickle me, squish my face, poke my nose, twist my arm, hold my hand, trace my scars - most any kind of contact is generally welcomed.
The best are form of affection; however, would most definitely have to be the hug. It is the most amazing thing I think I have ever been subjected to. You don't even need arms to hug. It is that freakin' awesome. Perhaps the best quote I have ever heard about hugs:

"As his arms went around her, she wondered how much of the human race understood about hugging - how good it was, and how a person could want to do it for hours on end. She supposed some did understand, but doubted that they were in the majority. To fully understand about hugging, maybe you had to have missed a lot of it."
Stephen King, Rose Madder, Page 387

Hugs are zen.
