- the pore needs the wall it leaks through When porosity runs to completion — boundary dissolved, gradient equalized — it extinguishes desire rather than fulfilling it, because desire requires partiality. Carnality is the membrane that admits without dissolving: the wall the pore needs to remain a pore.
