In the Port of Amsterdam

(Page 2 of 3)

 
And on another episode of "how green is your lover," I was making out with an 18-year-old guy when dry humping was introduced. After grinding for about five minutes I decided to relieve the poor boy. As my hand meandered down the front of his pants, imagine my surprise when I discovered that he'd already relieved himself quite amply in his briefs.
 
However, what the young guys lacked in sexual sophistication, they sometimes made up for in boldly romantic gestures-like the well-hung cutie that worked at the flower mart and decided he was going to bring me tulips every day. How could I forget the floppy-haired college boy in his overalls--like the Dutch Boy Paint character come to life--feverishly painting the walls of my living room?
 
And so, I survived on my steady, sweet--albeit not incredibly nutritious--Twinkie diet. On occasion, I would stick it out with one or another for a few months at a time. One guy I met, just-turned-18, told his mother about our affair. In true Dutch practical fashion she slapped him on the back and told he'd learn a thing or two about sex from an older woman.
 
As I neared my late 20's I dipped into the 22-year-old demographic. There was the shy musician who wore nothing but my faux fur coat as we rolled around on my wild bore-skin rug from Prague. That was the special rug that had gotten me temporarily incarcerated in the Dutch customs office one winter, clad in the aforementioned coat, a Russian hat, and fur gloves. After much backroom bickering and joking an officer emerged and asked me, "Are you some kind of fur fetishist?"
 
At one point, I was involved with a lion-hearted uber-Christian guy from the Boondocks. His face was like a young Brando's, his body that of a CK underwear model, and to quite religiously quote David Bowie (who covered Jacques Brel), "with God given ass."
 
Though I had to accompany him and his strict reformist church-going family to New Year's Eve mass-a.k.a. the 'apocalypse now sermon,' it was worth it. The pious ones are the kinkiest. We roleplayed boss and corporate slave, bored housewife and thirsty contractor, he did push-ups on me as class jock to my headmistress… And while out on the town, I pretended not to know him, he acted like he was following me home and ultimately ravaged me to the tune of mediocre Dutch house music.
 
I'll never forget the time I went to a boating supply store to buy rope to tie 'Young Brando' up. The white-haired store clerk with the walrus mustache had asked me, "How big is the yacht?" After an awkward silence, I had shrugged my shoulders and answered, "It's..uh about average." As a result of my naughty nautical estimate, I ended up buying far too much of the cord. It ultimately took me 20 minutes of ambling around the bed running the thick, lengthy twine through its posts, to secure his ripped and ready spread-eagled body. "In the port of Amsterdam You can see sailors dance, Paunches bursting their pants, Grinding women to porch."
