"He's wrecked, drunk as a skunk!" Somebody muttered.
"That damn scotch, he was okay with the beer. Never should have started with the scotch ..."
"Don't let him try and drive home, Donnie ... make him sleep it off."
He roused up about the time everybody left. I was gathering up glasses, emptying ashtrays. He tried to stand but didn't make it. He slumped back into his chair and his head hit the table with a thump on the green felt.
"Oh, shit!" He sat up with a groan.
"You all right?" I stopped to watch him.
"Mmmm? Yeah, I'm fine. Real fine!" His grin ran downhill on one side. "Where's the guys?" He looked around, rubbed at his face.
"Long gone, man. You pretty gone, yourself. Can you make it to the bedroom? Here, let me give you a hand ..." I put a hand under his arm.
"No ... Uh, no, man ..." He let me lead him but still kept telling me, "I gotta ... no, man!"
"You gonna pass out if you don't get to bed. I dount I can carry you. You can't drive, Wally ... you know that."
"I know, man ... I know, but I gotta ... I gotta piss, dammit!" He finally got it out.
"Oh. Okay, sure ... this way, then." He leaned on my shoulder and I had to put an arm around his waist to keep him upright. "Here you go, right in here ..." I stood him in front of the commode, held his waist from behind to keep him steady. "Can you manage it?"
"Hey ... hey", he cocked his head and looked back over his shoulder with a grin. "You gonna hold it for me?"
"No thanks, Wally. I believe you can do it, take your time ... damn, bad aim, man!"
He giggled, over-corrected and leaked a trail off the other side. "Damn, make that toilet stay still, man!" He chuckled. "Told you to hold it for me." His chuckled broke into raucous laughter.
"Okay, okay ... come on. You've done enough damage. Just don't pass out on me. Come on." I got him moving and steered him to the bedroom.
"Mmmm, ceiling is spinning round and round ... hold on a sec ..." He turned and grabbed at my shoulders, lay his head against my chest. He took a deep breath, coughed a little. "Okay, let me ..." He fumbled with his belt. His cheek still pressed at my chest. "Shit." He muttered. His hands swung uselessly at his sides.
"Sit down ... on the bed. Back up and ... that's it." I knelt down on the rug, untied his shoelaces and pulled off his shoes. He was struggling to tug his tee shirt over his head.
"I can't ... get ..." he grumbled.
"I'll do it, man, just wait a minute!" I got his shirt over his head and tugged at his arms, again. "Stand up, let me get your pants down."
He giggled, back to his drunken leering jokes. "Want me to drop my pants for you, Donnie? Hell, I'll drop my pants for you anytime, man ...I'll ..." He swayed and dropped the laughter. "Whoa, kinda shaky, ain't I?"
"Yeah ... and drunk as hell, too." I told him. That damn brass buckle didn't want to give up its grip ... finally got it loose and unbuttoned his jeans ... they fell to his knees. He wasn't wearing drawers. I bent down, grabbed at one leg. "Lift this foot ... " Tried not to notice the long, heavy dangle of meat that brushed my cheek. "Now this foot." I pulled the jeans from his foot. "Okay, hit the pillow, man. You're out of it." All I had to do was press one finger to his chest; he collapsed to the bed with a grunted "Oooommph."
I sat on the bed beside him and kicked off my shoes. "Hey ... hey Donnie ... You gonna sleep with me, ain't you?"
"Yeah, guess I will ... seeing as how this is the only bed I got." I wasn't too pissed about it, either. I examined those feelings. Not that it was exactly exciting to be laying down beside a catatonic drunk but he was Wally, after all, and I liked him ... especially liked him naked and making jokes about dropping his pants for me. I'd like to pursue that topic when he was sober.
"You gotta sleep with me, man. I don't want to sleep in here by myself." He half raised up and grabbed at my arm.
"Okay, okay ... Wally, I'm right here. Let me get my clothes off, okay?" Damn, he didn't talk this much sober.
"...sleep by myself all the time, get fucking tired of being by yourself ..." he continued to grumble quietly.
"Yeah, buddy. Me too. Me too." I knew what he meant, sure enough. I stood to shrug off my shirt and drop my pants. What the hell, he was naked, right? So I dropped my drawers, too. Wallace was staring at my dick, squinting as though he couldn't figure out what he was seeing. "You ain't gonna tell the guys, are you, Donnie?" I flicked out the bed side lamp, climbed in beside him.
"Tell 'em what, Wally? We ain't done nothing. They know you staying over. Told me to take your keys ..."
"But ... just don't tell 'em ... you know, don't tell nobody." His mutterings sighed into a whisper as he cuddled up nearer, on his side facing me; lay his face on my shoulder. His thigh slid over on top of mine and his palm slipped across my chest. He sighed deeply and began a quiet snoring.
I lay still, eyes closed and relaxed. His dick pressed warm and moist against my hip. I covered his hand with mine, leaned down to plant a gentle kiss on his thinning hair. "I'll never tell, buddy." I whispered.
I woke sometime over in the night. Wally had turned away from me and I was curled up behind him, arm around his belly. I had to take a leak, carefully extricated myself from his warm limbs. "mmm ... Donnie?" He mumbled.
"It's okay. I gotta take a leak." At least he knew who I was, where he was.
"Okay." He sighed. He rolled over to take my pillow. His erection flashed in the soft light from the hallway as he flipped over, scrunched up into a fetal position. Interesting. Erotic.
I went to pee.
Felt cool when I got back, took a blanket from the closet and spread it over Wally, crawled in under it. He backed up to make room for me then snuggled close when I lay down. This time his hand slid across my belly, came to rest just below my navel ... almost there, not quite. When his hard cock pressed my hip I covered his hand, pushed it down lower. His fingers curled around my shaft as it hardened to firmness. I turned towards him; my hand went over his hip to cup his round, naked ass. Then we slept. His breath wafted up from my throat, sour and rancid but not disgusting. He smelled like a man, a man like me.
Saturday morning, daylight bright and harsh at the blinds ... Wally was in the bathroom. The flush sounded loud. He stumbled back to bed and crawled in. His eyes ducked away when they met mine. He stayed on his side of the mattress, curled to the far wall.
"Come on back, man ... please. I'm cold." My voice sounded raspy, hoarse.
He rolled over, his eyes caught mine, held. His look was startled, timid but he held the contact. "Come on, it's okay ... this is me, Donnie ..." I reached out and touched his cheek, felt the stubble of his jaw. His fear relaxed, a grin peeped out. He scooted over by me. I put out my arm, allowed him to lay on it, move in close. He kept his hips back, didn't push up against me. His hand rested in the cleft between us. Just his face on my shoulder, his knees against my thigh. "You want a smoke?" I asked him.
"No ... thanks. I just want to go back to sleep. I was dreaming pretty good." His cheek moved, made a caress of its slide on my skin.
"Are you sure it was a dream?" I chuckled.
I felt him tense up. His head rose ... "what ... uh, did you? ... did I?"
"You were too drunk to remember, huh?" That's what they all say.
"Hell, it don't matter. Don't count if I was drunk ... does it?" He relaxed, sunk back into the curve of my arm.
"Well, I sure remember ... won’t forget it, never!"
"But you can't tell nobody, ever!" He curled closer. His hand came out and slid across my belly. His hips shoved forward and his knees moved down. At last his dick pressed to my bare skin. "I thought it was just a dream ... wasn't sure it really happened."
"Well ..." I took his hand, shoved it down lower until he gripped my cock and fondled my balls. "Even if it was a dream ... we got plenty of time to make it come true."

Adventurous Marine ... don bellew My cousin, James, he was a rounder. He was always chasing after some married woman or getting picked up for drunk and disorderly, some kind of trouble. He was a few years older than me and we never were close or nothing, just politely acknowledged our family connection and not that out in public. I guess I was an embarrassment to him, me being the butt of so
Donnie D Bellew Charles got us another beer from the refrigerator. The light fixture over the table was one of those kinds that hang from a retractable cable. He pulled it low and threw most of the kitchen in darkness. When he sat down the light was harsh on his hands, showing up the ridged tendons and blue veins, the thin fingers and heavy knuckles. He tilted his chair back and rested his
As sailors sleep Bunk beds make strange sailboats yet I float and scut before the draft of your breath. As you lie sleeping, I hover above. Your watcher, your guardian spirit pinned in your sky. You sleep as if my weight were nothing, air about you granted worship. Fine striped blue ticking and tiny downy barbs are my cheek's lover not the tendoned tan hands I watch in repose,
by Donnie D Bellew Something about Rayburn just seemed soft; he wasn’t sissy by any means, but he had that quality of easing past objections and ignoring jibes, you know? Like he didn’t really need disagreements--they made him nervous. He smiled a lot. He was easy company, anyway, and I usually paired off with him when the boss handed out job orders. If you got to work with a man all day then
One thing I liked about Ralph, he never wore any underwear. His personality sure wasn’t star quality, he was no conversationalist at all but the sight of his heavy meat swinging loose inside thin blue cotton work pants kept me working near him day after day. He was one of those guys who seem completely comfortable with the world, you know? Never complained, never grumbled, just went about his
David was half way through his steak dinner, thinking it was likely the best food he’d had in a month, when he noticed the two cowboys at the next table. He was so entranced with the tender and savory meal he’d not even noticed them come in. They were not much older than him but they had the look of experienced wranglers. Kind of similar, both slim and browned from the sun, both faces deeply
What? Twenty bucks?… just to see my dick? You shitting me?” “Here it is. I got it right here.” He watched the bill wave slowly. “Nawh, man. I can’t do it. Let me cut your grass or something. I gotta get some money, I owe this guy and he‘s pressing me, you know?” “Look at the yard. I cut the grass yesterday, Fred.” “Ain’t you got nothing else I can do?” I just grinned. “Yeah, I
donnie d bellew First day on the job and Kitt knew he wasn’t going to make it. When he signed up for the apprentice program he was only thinking about the money. Brick layers made more money than god! What he didn’t think about was the macho bullshit he’d have to put up with. Sure, he knew construction workers were gonna be homophobic and rude. He just didn’t realize how intimidating it
Lonnie knew Marvin was gay the first time he went into the yard next door to talk. He told the guy right off he was straight. They understood the lay-out. Lonnie must have known Marvin would eventually try something and Marvin had to know Lonnie would protest, right? Lonnie liked going over there. Marvin had a big screen and cable, the computer with internet access, the well stocked
Marvin came out of the hot shower even more depressed than before. He put on his flannel robe and decided to send Lonnie home. He just wanted to sleep off the headache. “Hey, I can’t take the noise, man. Cut it off, okay? I got to lie back down, my head is splitting!” Lonnie didn’t turn it off but he hit the mute. “Dallas just got a first down!” He announced. “I made you some coffee, it’s
Model 4 ... donnie d bellew Jimmy is a fireman in Walker County, the next county west from Birmingham. Born and raised in a small town, did two years at a state junior college. History major and a Civil War buff. He’s twenty eight, married seven years, two kids. He’s six foot, one, a hundred and eighty three pounds of lean, lanky country boy. He told me on the phone he didn’t have a long
At first Robert was reluctant to work for me. He always had another job when I called. I kept trying to hire him for a couple of reasons. First, he was the only man in our neighborhood that did lawn work on a full time basis, and you couldn’t depend on the high school boys to do a good job or to show up when they promised. But the main reason I wanted him doing my yard was because he looked so
I shaved, dressed and put five twenties in an envelope. I drove to his house and pulled in behind his truck. His mother was a tiny woman, with a very put upon expression, a whiner. “He’s asleep! He’s out all night runnin' around with that rough crowd. I can’t do nothin’with him! You need him to work?” “No mam, that’s okay. Just give him this. I didn’t have the money for him the last couple of
counted coup It's a Motel 6 morning in Bullnose Montana. Don't know what today is but the rodeo's over, the Greyhound has gone. I got two twenty dollars still stuffed in my sock from a contracting job that's all done. Don't know if my sore butt was prize for my bull ride or a gift from the plowboy still asleep in my bed. And there's just enough whiskey waiting there in the
I could never figure out why my sister married that idiot, Clark; nobody else could, either. She was a lot like me, quiet and shy in social situations. Clark was all-star linebacker. Opposites attract, right? He was the swaggering macho jock and she was the sweet, lady-like girl all the cheerleaders laughed about. But he wanted to marry her and she did it--against my advice, of course. Jenny
“See that boat up in the slew? Ain’t that Toby Martin?” Bobby Joe leaned out over the rail of the bridge, pointed. “Yeah, that’s him, cum sucking little faggot!” Earl spit a wad of brown juice into the river below. “Let’s go fuck with him … you can bet he’s got a cooler full of beer. He always does.” Bobby nudged Earl with an elbow. “Shit. I can’t stand that sissy! He don’t like me,
My all time favorite reluctant lover was Charlie. He was a macho type but not too harsh; just butch enough to get my attention and cute enough to hold it. He was a body and fender man at an auto shop on my mail route. He was temporarily staying at his dad’s house just a couple of blocks from the garage. He was thirty five when we met, an ex-army special forces, parachute jumper, lean and mean
I followed him to the kitchen. He set the bottle on the counter with a loud rattle, almost empty, hand not quite steady. “Get the beer … I’m gonna … uh,” he unsnapped his jeans and shoved them down, “gonna show youse da devil…” He turned half away, pushed his jockeys down off one side of his ass. “See?” he looked over his shoulder, awkward and silly. “Where?” I brought the beers over beside
I’m afraid this ain’t much of a story. It happened too fast, too sudden to develop a long story. I was staying up late one night, with my Uncle Matt. We’d watched the late movie and it was after midnight, the rest of the house was real quiet, everybody asleep. When he hit the remote, shut down the TV, the room went dark, no lamp on … Uncle Matt just kept sitting there. Hey, I was in no
Some Like It Cool ... donnie d bellew It’s Monday and I’ve decided today my favorite flavor is white trash. I may not remember tomorrow so I’m writing it down today. Other times it’s been black street punks and sometimes blond teenage boys (eighteen and over, yeah-right) ... much earlier it was gray fatherly men with shameful pink secrets or tanned pin-up guys with black tank top pecs
“Hi, Craig. How’s it hanging?” “I’m cool.” He shrugged, shoved his hands in his pockets and leaned back on the gate to watch me wash the truck. I went on with my chore. Craig wasn’t the kind of guy to expect me to stop for him. He lived down the street and dropped by most anytime of day. We weren’t even good friends, just casual neighbors with nobody else around to talk to, hang out with.
I think the year was twenty-five, I know the month was June with summer quickly burning off the downy spring. Dates grow encrusted and obscure but I hold clear a vision of saturated days, long and fever hot. I was at an interim of life, a milestone mark I wouldn’t soon erase. I’d never been away from home, the fall and college cast a looming shade. I clenched to this, my last toy summer, with the
When I pulled up to the next spot, Ryan was standing by his upright post and taking a leak with his back turned towards me. I let the truck roll forward, squeaked to a halt just past him. When I got out, in front, he didn’t turn away. “Did you see the storm coming?” I pointed back down the road and he turned his head in that direction. “Aye, been watching ‘em. They moving slow.”
We had a small yard but the temperature was in the high nineties and the humidity was thick enough to float a steel ball six feet off the ground so Warren was sweating like Niagara Falls. He made the last pass and pushed the mower up by the steps, peeled off his tee shirt and climbed up on the deck with a massive sigh. “You should have let me help. I told you it was too hot …” He waved his
By late Saturday afternoon I was completely burnt out in Rich’s household accessories. Sometimes shopping just isn’t enough? I also picked up a couple of phone numbers, a clerk and a guy in the parking lot who looked really butch but friendly? So I called it a good day and went home. Warren was asleep on the couch while Wild Kingdom featured the life cycle of a green moth, fascinating stuff.
donnie d bellew ........ Tommy stepped out of the shower and grabbed a towel just as he heard the front door open and quickly slam shut. “John? That you?” He called. “Well, yeah. Who else would it be, man?” His room mate came into the hall and stripped his tee shirt over his head. “It’s that kid next door, Kevin? He’s been over here twice already since I got home. He wants you to
With three trunks and several cardboard boxes full of papers, books and junk all smelling of whisky, mildew and pipe tobacco, it’s no surprise that it took me a month to discover the album. Uncle Harold had carefully packed up everything Granddad kept in his room and shipped it to me. I was his sole heir. Uncle Harold wasn’t really my uncle, just a long time resident in Granddad’s house.
I noticed him down at the end of the bar. He glanced up at me but didn’t smile so I didn’t try to talk to him right away. Still, we were both sailors, the only uniforms left in the place. Wouldn’t seem too odd if I spoke to him, would it? It was getting late and I guessed Tod wasn’t coming back. Several patrons seemed to leave at the same time and I looked around, wondered what time the place
I don’t generally announce my sexual tastes to just anybody I meet. I try and keep my private life private. Macall was just inquisitive as hell, though. He started in as soon as we began working together and wouldn’t quit. I kept avoiding his leading questions about who I dated and why I wasn’t married, etc. I actually told him it was none of his business, but that didn’t seem to make much of an
The Grand Obsession ... don bellew It goes like this: He looks okay, not too damn defensive or nervous. He keeps watching your eyes, trying to tell if he reads you right. He’s not sure. You look right at his crotch, again, smile. Now he’s certain and he either grins or he gets the fuck away from you fast as he can. If he takes off then you keep looking, right? So he grins or he laughs … he’s a
When two guys from the Tiger Club sat down beside him in the library, Darren immediately began gathering up his books and notes. Common instinct for self preservation told him these guys had no good intensions towards him or anybody else. The Tiger Club was the top of campus hierarchy and nerds were down in the nether regions, dregs of the college social order. Darren very carefully avoided
When the poker game broke up Wallace was still sitting there, leaned over his fists. I thought he was about to cry or something. "He's wrecked, drunk as a skunk!" Somebody muttered. "That damn scotch, he was okay with the beer. Never should have started with the scotch ..." "Don't let him try and drive home, Donnie ... make him sleep it off." He roused up about the time everybody
Weak in the knees ........... don bellew It had been cloudy all day, a dull silver sky that was growing dark in late afternoon. July it usually stayed light until nine but here it was only six-thirty and I was yawning. Too quiet, I guess. Quiet was the very reason I’d moved out to the country when I retired. I wanted to get out of the city and away from the sight of constant people.
I was staying late one evening at the office, just hanging around to use our great system to surf the net. My home PC is okay, just slow. The boss is cool. He knows what I’m up to. I don’t get paid by the hour so he doesn’t care how long I stay. He actually benefits because I answer the phones and take messages until I leave, maybe eight o’clock on a good net night. When the crew of janitors
Writer’s Camp ... by Donnie D Bellew He wasn’t spectacular. Not even pretty, just an average face with an interesting ... uh, aura? persona? How do you label it? He was on the large size, not his hips but his long bones. He’d need a double x large sweater just to cover his wrists. Belt too high, shirt too plain for him to be gay. He didn’t have the look, either. Maybe that’s what drew my
