'I am' is a dream. The desire is a dream. The dreamer is dreaming himself.
The symbolism of my desire, is a revolt against the ego and superego. It is sacrilege. An urge to sacrilege, coming from 'my' heart's depth.
But since a symbol isn't the thing in itself, I determine my dream. I choose a value, a symbol. I create.
Rebellion is concession. It's a supression of power. Conformity is excellence. This constitutes the root of my ambivalence.
The Creator is ambivalent. He is her.
so... what about 'your libido'? Harmony. You mean your libido is pleasing? To who? You (as the eater) or the eaten? I have seen that I am the eater, and the eaten. Being eaten has been a problem for me. Call it 'castration anxiety'. Recall the link I've given, of the two cannibals; they ate the penis first. They lived out their biggest fear.
