Thanks to all for the annotations-advice!

I spent an hour the other evening thumbing thru "In Search of the Miraculous"
to see if I could find the particular instance of Ouspensky having a feeling
"G" was on his way, and couldn't-- though there are some wonderfully strange
phenomena, especially a series of telepathic conversations between them.

but I only see "Dave G" on Lionheart, not TKI.  And I thought I remembered
reading that Kate and Dave never really saw that much of each other...

I don't remember where I picked this up, but in the context of Wow and Kashka
and Infant Kiss and Kick Inside, I think it's fair game to look for
masturbation references-- and they're certainly read-in-able here:
"oh I'm so worried about my love/ They say 'No no it won't last forever'"?

Forgive me if I'm vulgar, but in the interest of objectivity, ladies, does the
line "..when I turn the light off/ and turn over" fit the picture?

Certainly it's a fantasy-lover (at least in some lines), and the line
"a man I've never known before" doesn't fit very well with the father theory.

I always took the title-image to refer to men who still retain some innocence.
