My Girl the Garbage Disposal
Standing proudly by the mirror
and waiting for her pants to rise…
Around I turned to see her true,
unreflected and comfortable.
“Unsex me” she said, but I knew it was Shakespeare.
And we had just made connection…
As the male in these dances of paramour lust,
I needed about ten minutes.
Her denim blue eyes and mine dead-locked.
The look towards her insides with a smile cocked made her crack,
- she laughed.
We matched so well… bound in the same godly veneer
Glistening with sweat as she headed out the stall…
The evidence could be no clearer.
But she simply shut the stall with her light finger tips,
while I shook my red hair in an act of deific deign,
She was still weak,
my breaths were yet back to steady.
“Worth it?” she said, smacking my posterior.
We late for class, in wrinkled clothing, both failing History.
I nodded my head in response, just as the mens’ room door opened
- Just in time to avoid ‘caught in the act’
I was sure and cocky, I but lacking her sheer nerve to strut.
while glancing back at the door slamming behind me…
Not as clean a surface to sidle upon,
but Girls’ rooms are busy,
and Tina was brave.
*Yep, Tina (above) was my first girlfriend… well, unless you count HER girlfriend at the time as partially mine. Anyway, I was gay, so it worked out. *

camerahappy
Great shot and story, thanks for sharing it
Lulabell
brilliant shot. story behind it is very emotive, and touching in a quirky way. love it.

I love the vacant expression she seems to have on her face…Just forking cigs into her mouth [or about to XD]. And the story which ties into it lends a whole new perspective to the shot, actually..
Very nicely done(:

The story with this reminds me of Will and Grace LOL
It’s a shame when you lose touch with good friends.
This lady looks like an anything goes sort of person…....good fun to have around

Fun indeed… I recall a trip to the Renaissance Festival with her and another friend of my Samantha. The back seat of my Jeep had never seen so much lesbian action… or any action, to that point at least.
I fear Tina was always more concerned with being wanted than with her own desires physically… she must have ended up better than my second girlfriend, however, as after a year with that one, sex deprived as she was, she managed to get pregnant within the month of our breakup. THAT was a true shame, because more than even tina, I loved Sarah (the second) beyond the physical, and as she was 17 at the time, it pretty much ended her life (the fact the guy she got pregnant by was severely abusive didn’t help issues much). Make sure you advise any gay friends you may have just how much damage they can do unless they simply admit to themselves where they stand.
But, I got great pictures out of both of them, so not a complete loss (I say this of course half heartedly even in humor).

Alas…..it has been the other way around with a lot of my gay friends who made it clear where they stood…. they have been the ones abused by gay bashers
.....simply for being themselves.
A lot of them tried Hetro relationships earlier in their lives but only ended up hurting both parties and there were children involved also.
It’s sad when you have to hide your true self

I too am attracted to Gay women… She does indeed look very cool.

This hits home for me. My best friends (2) were both gay…and one told his girlfriend…and the other did not, until years later….You have to be true to yourself. Your work is strong…and it is eye opening, as well.
