"Love is not a potato.  You can't throw it out the window."

Author's Note:  This is a story about control.  It shows
                how men try to control women through their
                fantasies, and how these fantasies can
                distort men's view of the world. The intent
                of this story is not erotic, but it does
                have a strong sexual focus.  Hopefully, it
                will be thought provoking about the way men
                view women.

     Spare Change

    "Hi, spare change?"
    "No, sorry.  Not today," says Fuller not even looking down
     in her direction.
    "Wait, please wait" she begs.
     Fuller hesitates and stops.
     The other pedestrians flow around them like water around rocks.

    "You can spit on me for a dollar," she offers.
     Fuller stares at her speechless.

    "I know you despise me."

    For a minute,  Fuller  stops  breathing.   He  is  dressed in a
    business suit standing at a busy downtown street corner  across
    from  a  park.  He looks down at the panhandler. She is dressed
    in old blue jeans and  a  man's faded, plaid, wool shirt. She's
    thin with long brown hair.  Her hair is parted in  the  middle.
    Her  face  has  a pale, innocent, almost angelic look. In other
    circumstances, she could be a young college student, an artist,
    or the  daughter  of  a  business  associate.  There is nothing
    exceptional about  her.   Countless  beggars  like  her  loiter
    around the downtown streets asking for spare change.

    She  is  probably  a  drug  addict,  a  homeless teenager, or a
    prostitute. Maybe,  she's  one  of  those  cocaine  whores that
    Fuller has read about in the X-Rated Men's magazines. The other
    pedestrians flow around Fuller and the beggar girl, as if  they
    were  rocks  in  the  middle  of  a  stream, oblivious to their
    existence.

    "You'll let me spit on you?"
    "Only if you give me a dollar."
    "Do you want me to spit on you?"
    "You despise me, and for a dollar you can spit on me."

     The girl says these last  words  with a conviction that defies
     rebuttal. It is this last comment that causes Fuller  to  stop
     breathing.   It  isn't  the  words.  The  words are innocent. 
     Spoken  out  loud  on  a  street  corner  where  vulgar sexual
     profanities are commonly shouted. No, it isn't the  words.  It
     is the implication.

     For  Fuller,  the  implication briefly suspends time while his
     imagination runs wild with the possibilities.

     He is repulsed by her offer, but attracted to the options.  If
     he can spit on her, what other exchanges of bodily fluids will
     she consider?

     "Well mister, make up your mind."

     Fuller considers carefully before responding.

    "No thank you, but we might think of something else."
    "Like what?" she quickly throws the problem back to him.
    "Well, like a kiss."
    "No, sorry.  I don't kiss strangers."

    Confused, Fuller shifts strategies.

    "You're a tease," he counters.
    "Maybe. Are you man enough to find out?"
    "Are you old enough?"
    "I'm old enough to know how."
    "I'll bet you are," answers Fuller, nodding his head.

    He looks at her more closely.  She doesn't appear to
    be wearing any bra beneath the plaid shirt.

    "Take a picture, it lasts longer," the girl taunts him.
    "I'll give you a dollar."
    "OK, but no drooling.  You only get to spit once."
    "No," says Fuller.
    "You really do despise me, don't you?"
    "No."
    "OK, for $1.50 you can drool all over my face."

   Fuller imagines doing something similar to drooling all over her
   face,  picturing  the  thick viscous fluid flow around her mouth
   and drip off her chin.  He imagines it dripping inside her shirt
   onto her breasts.

   "No," he answers.
   "Forget it, cheapskate, if $1.50 is too high."
   "It's not too high."
   "Well, bite me!"

   With an exaggerated shrug of  exasperation the beggar girl flips
   her long hair off to one side and  looks  him  directly  in  the
   eyes.  Fuller responds.

   "No spitting, but if you crawl for me, I'll give you two dollars."
   "That's all?"
   "No, you need to undo the top two buttons on your shirt first."

   For the first time, the girl smiles.

   "Now I get your game."
   "But not here."
   "Where?"
   "Over by that park bench across the street."

   As  if  they  had known each other for a long time, the girl and
   Fuller walk side by side across  the street to the park.  An old
   wino with a scruffy beard sits on one end of the  park  bench.  
   He's  drinking out of a wine bottle, poorly concealed in a brown
   paper bag.

   On the benches  across  from  Fuller  are some young secretaries
   eating brown bag lunches and enjoying the sun.

   Fuller stops about ten feet  from  the  park  bench  and  starts
   laying  quarters  down  on the bricks, dropping eight of them at
   intervals of one foot.  He drops  the last quarter just two feet
   from the end of the bench.  He sits down.

   Fuller watches as the girl standing in front of  him  casts  her
   eyes down and unfastens the top two buttons of her plaid shirt. 
   She lifts her eyes to his before removing a third button.

   She flashes him a smile.

   Fuller waits, feeling himself growing hard.

   She  gets  down on her hands and knees, tosses her hair back out
   of her face, and picks up the first two quarters.

   The angle is wrong.  Fuller can't quite see.

   She crawls forward picking up the third and fourth coins.

   Fuller smiles.  Now he can  see  her.  She's much fuller then he
   guessed.

   As she crawls closer, the view gets better.

   Finally, Fuller has a full, unobstructed  view  of  her hanging
   breasts.

   He  is  so  engrossed in his fantasy that he blocks out the wino
   sitting on  the  other  end  of  the  bench  and  even the young
   secretaries eating lunch just 20 feet  in  front  of  him.   His
   whole  world is focused on the girl, concentrated on one part of
   her anatomy.  He's getting his  peep  show in broad daylight. He
   has no need to go to a porno store,  and  put  quarters  into  a
   slot.  He's enjoying his peeping in the fresh air, at noon time,
   with pedestrians walking all around him.

   The  ripe jiggling breasts are crawling across the park directly
   toward him.

   As the girl reaches out to pick up the second to the last of the
   coins, Fuller feels a  familiar  tingling  in  his loins.  He is
   fully excited, fully hard.  He's so hard, it would be impossible
   for him to stand up and walk away from the park without it being
   obvious to everyone that he had a hard  cock  pushing  down  the
   side  of his pants.  The bulge in his pants would be noticed. It
   would be painful to walk.

   Suddenly, the wino lurches off  the  park bench.  He has spotted
   the girl crawling toward the last quarter.  She is  dragging  it
   out.   Crawling  toward  the  quarter  in  a slow motion, she is
   giving Fuller  his  money's  worth.  But  the  wino mistakes her
   slowness  for  opportunity.  Thinking  the  quarter  belongs  to
   whoever gets it first, the wino lunges forward to grab it.   But
   the abrupt exertion upsets his stomach, and vomit explodes out of
   his mouth covering the coin.

   Ashamed at his sudden  illness,  the  wino staggers away leaving
   the vomit covered quarter for the girl.

   The girl remains frozen.

   Fuller is repulsed, but unable to remove his eyes from the scene
   unfolding  in  front of him. Gradually, the girl raises her eyes
   from the pool  of  vile-smelling  vomit  to  look at Fuller.  As
   their eyes meet, her face blossoms  into  a  mischievous  smile.
   Lowering her eyes, she carefully pushes aside the vomit with one
   finger, and picks up the last coin with her left hand.

   Raising her head, she looks directly into Fuller's eyes.

   "My tongue is going to clean the vomit off this quarter."
   "No," says Fuller with a look of sick disbelief.
   "Yes," answers the girl on her knees.
   "Don't do it," Fuller begs.

   Without  taking  his  eyes off her face, repulsed but engrossed,
   Fuller watches as  her  right  hand  places  the  quarter in her
   mouth.

   "Yummy," she mumbles fishing the quarter around in her mouth and
   pushing it out so Fuller can see it lying on her tongue.

   Fuller wanted to debase the  girl,  and manipulate her, but this
   is out-of-bounds.  This is hard-core depravity.  This is  beyond
   humiliation.
   
   Fuller has lost control.

   His hardness shrivels away.
   His fantasy is lost.

   Fuller  feels  nauseated.  Hot bile rises in his throat.  With a
   sour mouth, he turns toward the girl.

   "Why did you do it?"
   "Do what?"
   "Put the vomit-covered quarter in your mouth."
   "I didn't," the girl said, spitting the quarter out into her
    right hand.
   "Don't lie. I saw you do it."
   "No, you didn't."
   "What do you mean?"
   "You only saw what you wanted to see."

   Smiling, the girl stands up  and  dumps the seven clean quarters
   from her right hand into her front jeans pocket.  She turns  her
   back  on Fuller, flipping her long hair around, and walks out of
   the park.  Fuller watches  until  she  disappears into the other
   pedestrians.

   As she walks away, the vomit-covered quarter  is  still  tightly
   clenched in her left hand
