Excerpt:
This was the geography of pain—the television in the corner, Wayne on the floor straining toward the television, and Glen behind him boring holes through his head, watching for the telltale sign. Tick, tick, tick went the clock, and another movie rolled on with blood and muscles and bombed-out streets. After a few hours, Wayne stretched, oh so casual, and slinked off to the bathroom. The bathroom is the center of a secret universe in any young man’s life. In the bathroom, mirrors reflect greasy hands and pumping groins and objects going where not intended. In this bathroom, Wayne removed his robe, removed his underwear, and gazed into the mirror. His eyes squinted so as to make everything blur, not real, and his hands moved slowly, and someone else’s hands felt his chest with some hair but not much yet, and their hands felt his legs still smooth and their hands tugged at the fine hair lying under his arms. Slow starts the dance, hips moving slowly as the images flow quickly past closed eyelids. The images of a body sitting on the sink, leaning back on arms now massive, showing a chest that draws him down, draws him toward smells that are the smells of his own body as Wayne leans his head down to his own chest. All the while, it was the roar of TV, the clatter of the kitchen, that made the act obscene. It was the juxtaposition of the mysterious and the deadening life just beyond the thin door that perverted these lovely rites. After it was all done, the evidence could just be washed down the drain or disappear under the shower stream, flushing out of the house and back into darkness.
There was an empty space far underneath the bathroom counter where Wayne stored jerk-off magazines, and he reached under, groping for the tattered pages. Wayne had sent away for this particular magazine even knowing the great danger of discovery that lay in the plain brown-paper wrapper. He looked at the crude drawing of a hairy man on the cover and turned immediately to his favorite story.
