Silver and Gold

Sunlight filtered through the branches of towering redwoods, bathing the floor of the Wood in dappled green light. The day was warm and the air soft. Iridescent blue butterflies flitted through sweet scented air in search of nectar from surreal tropical flowering vines that wrapped around the trunks of the towering trees. Deer picked their way through narrow tracks in […]

Beach Ball Booty

“Uh…Excuse me, miss,” the light-brown, slim-built dude with long dreads said, approaching the bent over cutie with the rotund rump wiggling from side to side. “Yes,” the rich chocolate vixen stood up. He studied the angel from head to toe. “Ohhhhh. My bad…I thought you was…” “A girl,” the effeminate dude giggled. “What made you decide I wasn’t,” he smiled. […]

The Short Straw

In the late autumn of last year, I was getting very restless. The summer had been wonderful, sharing a weekend house with friends on Fire Island where we could relax, swim, soak up the sun and party until it was time to return to work on Monday morning. This ended with the last true party of the summer, a bonfire […]

One More Year

I’m not a grim, depressive person. At least I don’t feel like one. Not all the time, anyway. I assume everyone has their low points, and I’m no exception, but I like to think of myself as relatively upbeat. I’ve been called an ‘Emo Kid’ occasionally at school, although I don’t remember why. Maybe song choice. High school is the […]

Cock Next Door

I arrived home after being gone for five days at a summertime principals’ conference, since I’d just been promoted to vice-principal of the high school I’d been teaching at for the past twenty years. I was excited about my new professional opportunity, but also felt a little remorseful, since when school started up again in the fall I wouldn’t be […]

Thumbing a Ride

At the time, I was just another teenage boy looking for adventure. I had set off across the United States with next to nothing and was returning home in much the same fashion. I was carrying everything that I owned in a rolled-up sleeping bag. There I was, standing alone, facing the oncoming traffic. My arm was outstretched in the […]

Top Man

I stripped off my sweaty workout gear and stood naked in the changing room, rolling my shoulders to relieve the locked muscles. I knew that a lot of the guys would be checking out my meat which I could feel hanging down towards my knees, swinging gently in what was no doubt an impressive fashion. It was a very impressive […]

Male Nurse in the Caribbean

It was a regular checkup at the cardiac unit at the main hospital on this Caribbean island where I was living. I had stripped to my underpants and put on a white gown in preparation for some sort of test where they stuck electrodes to my chest and a machine sent little charges through me. I don’t know what, exactly. […]

At Last I am Free

Perry sat on the settee next to me after coming back from the kitchen with two glasses of chilled dry sherry. It was hot here, in his little house on the edge of Paramaribo, the capital of hot, sweaty Suriname in the north of South America. I had met Perry the previous day in a DIY store in town, both […]

Curious Friends

The last summer vacation before going off to college is bittersweet; on one hand you’ve finished school forever, on the other hand, you’re on your way to a new experience you’re not sure if you’re ready for. Late in my final school year, I decided to apply to a college a few hours away from my area. Close enough to […]
