All in rhyme, as per the original Ballad. (mF, MF, rom, sm, beast) *** The Scions Of Eskimo Nell ------------------------- It was Friday night on K Street, The weekend had just begun. I was tired, and cranky, and hungry. And my Congressman wanted some fun. So I walked along in formation, Behind an old man dressed in tweed. By day he's a voice for the nation, By night he has some sick need. I have to explain in some detail, Why he likes the bordello we walk to. Myself, I am still an innocent male, His page, his flunky to talk to. The old man had fought in Vietnam, He flew a jet fighter down there. He was shot down by enemy gunners, And imprisoned in just underwear. The best interrogators, Tried to make him talk, you see. They beat him with whips and with sticks. They wanted his fleet's strategy. He starved in a cage for his mission, And they did things unspeakable. That left him without any passion, For a man to make love at all. He made the illusion of normal life, He married to help his career. But childless had been he and his wife, They could not consummate, I did fear. She had been his friend from childhood, She waited years for his release. She didn't know why his manhood, Had become now a dead beast. They annulled the marriage, as you see, After a whole year of trying. She needed the pleasures of the flesh, And so inside he felt like dying. After forty years, she's still alive, In a nursing home, hearty and hale. I carried a birthday card to her, The boss did not trust the mail. As I recount the old man's story, And my own position within it, He and I arrived at the place, Where he gets his small benefit. I am allowed inside in the lobby, It's a social club just past the door. It's not obviously a bordello, Because nowhere in sight is a whore. The old man walks to the bartender, And orders some Black Label neat. He salutes God with his whiskey glass, Then sips it as he takes his seat. As for me, I can drink only Shasta, I'm his ward since I'm so far away, From my home so far north in Alaska, And I sleep at the YMCA. He finished his drink, pats my shoulder, And starts to walk upward the stairs. "T'will be a long night", to myself I said, And wonder what girls have thier lairs. I watch the clock for an hour, With another it gets quite boring. It seems I had slept for a long while, And then a hand shook me from snoring. I saw that the hand was a golden brown, From the rest of her I could intuit: Based on her eyes, her face, and hair, She was clearly a pretty Inuit! She looked like she's aged ten and eight, I could swear she stood four foot and nine. She was dressed like a manager might, No skin showed, but she looked quite fine. I smiled at her, and then said "hi!" To her beautiful heart shaped face. Within which were midnight eyes, and her hair, Ran down to her waist, black as space. She smiled back at me, and I was awestruck, By her shining smile, and her grace too. I prayed silently to continue my luck, "I'm Nellie!" she said, "Who are you?". "My given name, ma'am", I said, "is Richard," "I live near Fairbanks where snow's thick." "I'll tell you, in case you've never heard," "That my friends call me Denali Dick," "That's so amazing!" she said to me, "I've not seen my birthplace for such a long age." "I've been homesick so long, you see," "I'm glad even for its Congressional Page!" Her teeth looked perfect, she had full red lips. Her trousers led up to the swell of her hips, So achingly feminine, I noticed her vest, Could not hide the swell of small breasts. Being sixteen in a land where the men, Outnumbered the women by a factor of ten. Left me unprepared for any girl as such, Let alone Nellie, who was so close to touch. A shiver ran down from my head to my feet, And then bounced back upward my pants. To the region from which my legs meet, I knew anyone would notice at a glance. Nellie, a cool one, surely did not show, Even as she caused within me a stir. My face felt flushed, surely she must know, What I wanted most was just to take her. "My Congressman is upstairs," I said. "He needs special treatment of some sort," "I'm his escort just to make sure," "He doesn't trip, get mugged, or hurt," She held my elbows, stepping in close, Her lips were now so near, and so, I could even feel the breath of those, As she whispered to me, "I know." Nellie then stepped a bit aways, But then she grabbed my fingers. She led me to a place where she stays, Her office: through days, there she lingers. She sat us down on a comfortable sofa, Upholstered with pure white leather. It had small pillows thrown all over, White lace cases softer than heather. "I am a virgin," I stammered to her, "I've read about what I must do.". "You're so beautful though, I'm just not sure", "I could last twenty seconds within you!" She smiled, kissed the tip of my nose, And then she said to me "Hush.". She stroked my hair, held me close, Murmuring, "Don't worry, there's no rush." She held my cheeks as she kissed my mouth. Her tongue then touched mine like a lance. Fairly soon though, her hands sent south, She took off my shoes, then my pants. I then began to unbutton her vest, While she put her hands on my member. My reward was to feel her sweet chest, While she caressed me to a hot ember. Her legs felt so smooth and strong, After taking her trousers off. Her panties were next to go along, I felt her bush... so wet and soft! She pushed me off the couch, And laid me onto the floor. She knelt above my waist in a crouch, Then lowered herself down some more. She held my throbbing hardness upright, Rubbed my glans against her wet flesh. Settling slowly upon me, oh so light, Till our pubic hairs touched, then meshed. I was feeling amazing sensations, As her wet organ took me in whole. To the world I paid no more attention, Her softness and tightness were all. As if it could not get better, She rose slowly again up in place. We now barely touched together. As ecstacy shone on her face. She dropped downward fast, to pound me, Like waves from violent weather. She was the hurricane crossing the sea, I could hear our laps slapping together. I watched her eyes then shut tight, She gave a low growl, shuddered fast. Her face while she came was a fantastic sight, Her insides massaged me then last. My own orgasm had not yet unfurled, I was close, she was such a good lover. When Nellie returned from her inner world, I held her, and then rolled us over. It was my turn to now apply pressure, In the missionary position. I saw in her eyes surprised pleasure, There was clearly no need for permission. I had read how I must tease her in place, So in and out slowly I stroked. I nibbled her neck, and kissed her face. Her fires I patiently stoked. In a minute or so I could feel her, Hands on my back curl and tighten. Heard her pant, felt her body shiver, She was ready to climax again. "Let go and come with me now!" she implored, Tears leaked down her face, enraptured. I tasted them as I kissed her some more, This memory I've forever captured. I used my hands at times before, On the frontier, way back when. But with Nellie I felt so much more. Like Mount McKinley gone active again! My body forced my eyes to shut tight, At that moment, my first time with Nelly. I shook, then exploded in utter delight, As deeply as I could in her belly. We basked in the afterglow of our release, I wanted to be hers for life. After those minutes I broke the peace, I asked, "I wish someday you'd be my wife.". In my arms forever, I wanted her to stay. But Nellie smiled upward at me. Said, "What an adorable thing to say!" "As the years pass, we shall see.". "I don't want to marry a powerful man," "How they act with me, I do know." "They see common people as dirt, and then," "They pay girls for thier time, and then go." "But you're the real deal," she stated, "'Tween us something's special's been sown," "On this wonderful night I am sated," "Please know I want you for my own.". I said, "With voice or with hand, I beg you, be kind," "And then I will stay good, for years," "I want all your babies to be also mine," "I will hold you though sunshine, and tears.". We lifted ourselves off the floor, And then we put on our clothes. Before we left through the office door, On her desk were photos, I saw those. I saw a woman in an ancient picture, Dressed only in whalebone corset. Draped 'round was a coat of beaver, And looked just like Nellie? No bet!! I reached deeply into my wallet, A picture of my Gramp's dad was inside. He was dressed like a trapper decrepit, He stood on a polar bear hide. "This was the man," I said to her, "From whom I had got my first name.". "They had also called him 'Deadeye'," "Since five hundred yards could he aim!". She then examined the picture, Her breath caught in sudden start. Her eyes widened in wonder, She heard the pounding of her heart. "This was the man!" Nelly exclaimed, "Who actually conceived Grandmother," "Her mom said he didn't pull out in time," "He was far too quick on the trigger.". After I slipped my shoes back on, I held Nellie to me and I kissed her. "No wonder I'm captured by you, whereupon," "I'm sure no man alive could resist her." "Don't you suppose," she wondered aloud, "To women, men are sheep for the slaughter? "No man could resist me," she said so proud, "'Cause I'm Eskimo Nell's great-grandaughter!" "Oh. My. God," I exclaimed in surprise, "You're my unique bit of good luck!" Nellie then put my hands on her breasts, Saying, "You are such a fantastic fuck!" "With your splendiferous pole," she said, "I came twice when you were inside me!" "I shook within from the depths of my soul," "You're so wonderful!" she cried with glee. "We must return home," I said, "to Alaska," "Since fate had thrown us together." But for help I so much needed to ask her, Before we could be... forever. I told her about my mentor, The Congressman from Arizona. Something so horrible happened to him, He's a bitter old man, and a loner. I asked, "What terrors did the VC visit", "That he can't get it up anymore?". "Upstairs he goes each week, why is it, "What did they prescribe for his cure?" Nellie's face became shadowed with sadness, She said Viet Cong hardened his prick. With a girl's mouth, sped him to madness. Slammed on each boner a heavy stick. "Using cat o-nines upstairs," she concluded, "He does gets a solid erection." "I know that it sounds so deluded," "But it transcends his mental condition." I felt sick inside, learning vividly how, Men can be so cruel to each other. I then realized that he had hope now, In his youth, he did have a lover. To her, I said, "I have an idea," "He has an ex-wife who he treasures." "Next time, could you bring her here?" "She could deal out his pain in good measures." Each of us, in our way, cared for this man, We wanted him whole, healed, and fit. Taking my thought, she said, "What about then," "She'd take his out and sit on it!" "Let's do it!" she said, resolutely, She smacked her right fist in her hand. To her, I replied, "Absolutely!" Since this seemed like such a good plan. I felt that the hour grew late, Then I read her desk clock in dismay, I stared down in the eyes of my future mate, And declared, "I love you, by the way." "I love you, too," she said solemnly, "Take him home, I will call you a taxi." "Afterward," and gave something to me, "Use this, my only spare house-key." She wrote down her address and number, And stuffed it into my coat pocket. She made her calls, then looked somber. She picked up from her desk a gold locket. She said, "It belonged to great-grandmother," "Please wear this near to your heart.". "You are my twin soul, dear sweet lover," "From now on we must never part." We waited for the Yellow Cab to come by, Both clothed but embracing in bliss. When it arrived, I heard her sad sigh, We had spent ten minutes in a kiss. She and I walked to through the door, And then back out to the bar, Sitting to wait was my mentor, I told him that we had a car. "I had a very nice workout tonight." "So a ride home would be good," he thus stated. "I need to go get some much well earned rest," I'm more tired than I anticipated." I said, "I can take you over now, sir," "But I can't tell you a lie," "I found a much better place to stay," "At nights, instead of the Y.". The old man then smiled the young lady's way. He said, "I think you have my blessing." "I can only hope you know from tonight's stay." "It's a madame with whom you've been messing." She threw a Bronx cheer at him to disagree. "You'd better not mess with me, you old man!" "My body is not a commodity!," "Other kinds I deal with for my clan." "Yes, I must admit it's my building," "It's prime real estate, as it goes." "With the rent I can make a killing." "But the tenants, I try not to know." "I'm planning a very special party," "Tomorrow, please come, you're invited." "I'm sure you'll find the food very good," "Plus a ballroom dance, you'll be delighted!" "Till next night," said the old man then, "Since I have work tomorrow to do," "Richard must help with some bills I'll amend," "For now I must bid you, adieu." The cabbie then waved us into his car. He drove us more quickly than a mouse, Down the street we had walked after work so far, And stopped at a brown stone townhouse. "I'll see you tomorrow, I wish you well." "Good night!" said my employer. "I know till now that you never met Nell," "I do really hope you'll enjoy her!" I read to the cabbie the address, That she wrote down for me on the paper. As he drove me there, I was feeling so blessed, In no time at all, we arrived there. I hope this was her home, I needed to pee. Since Nellie and I parted, an hour had passed, It was nearly ten when I had used her key, I could do my business at last! Opening the bedroom, I could plainly see, The entire room lit with bright candles. I needn't have worried, she walked up to me. From the sauna she wore naught but sandals. She was nude as the lights made contortions, As I drank in the sight in surprise. Though short she had perfect proportions. In her chest, and in her hips, and in her thighs. She smiled as she drank a glass of red wine, And passed it to me for some sips. She sat on the bed as I drank some, Precisely where she touched her lips. She's my goddess, I wanted to worship her. So I knelt on my knees at her front. I tasted thyme, honey, and myrrh, When I touched my mouth to her cunt. I licked gently at a delicate petal, While she curled her fingers in my hair. Her clit then I wanted to sample. She moaned, as I touched my tongue there. Slowly I moved my mouth deeper. I could feel her thighs starting to twitch. I drank more of her own sweet liquid. She moaned louder, with a rising pitch. Then violently she shivered in place, And voiced a thin piercing scream, Without any warning, she came in my face, Could this be a passionate dream? Upon the bed, on her back, she then laid, In a wanton pose, arms out to me. Her feet on the mattress, a hot sight she made, Shouting, "Get undressed now, and do me!" I'm sweating profusely in my pose, Staring at her naked treasures. Quickly, I threw off all my clothes, And my phallus was ready for pleasures. My organ needed some moisture, Between her legs my hand then led. I dipped my fingers into her nectar, And then with them I moistened its head. By now I had earned her trust, Some measured force was called for, so: I plowed, in one fast, hard liquid thrust. She cried out one syllable, "Oh!" Upwards at me rocked her pelvis, Downwards at her I rocked mine. Our coupling delicious and mindless. We were having a good fucking time. Of my body, I was no longer its master. Our voices called in higher keen. We slammed into each other yet faster, A well oiled erotic machine. Now, I felt squeezed by a giant hand, I came into her with all my might. Is there any good way to record that? Any words I imagine seem trite. While she was unconscious of anything here, Save some square inches of her inner core. She tilted back her head, clamped nails on my rear, And gave out a guttural roar. We had locked arms and legs in our fervor. We then shared a motionless straining, As we ground our hips in each others', Drinking all our passion remaining. I woke up at six in the morning, But Nellie's no longer in bed. Her side of the covers had gone cold, I found a note from her instead. Saying, "My dearest dear Richard," "Had to run for some errands to do." "I want to wish you good luck on the bill," "Just remember how much I love you!" In my mind I simply shrugged inward, I hoped her feelings won't change. Working today would not be so hard, But the day did sure later get strange. After I dressed and ate breakfast, And then rode the local subway. I arrived at my employer's office, To find out that he was away! Today it seemed was a day of notes, His handwritten note I could see. Said: "Do what you can to trade votes," "Since defense is important to me." And so I consulted his papers, And studied his desk's secret file. Listened to tapes of his phone calls, During lunch I just thought for a while. Finally I had reached my decision, A strategy so bold and new. I hoped it would not earn derision, But I knew what I had to do. I walked out my door to the hallway, Afterward I then turned right. I found the narrow stairway, And walked the stairs down a flight. I did phone ahead my arrival, His receptionist knew where I came from. I stood in front of my mentor's rival, Senator X. F. Sanitarium. I went through the niceties, Some people think my manners too quaint. Others are simply to hard to please, He's one, saying: "Get to the point!" I told him he would get support, On his measure for anti-abortion, If he did provide in his turn, To kill a north pipeline in motion. An action to earn approval, it ought, Of a deep ecologist lobby. Thier politician that they had bought, Would then support my boss's hobby. He demanded where did my boss go, And why did he send his young flunky? I shrugged, did even my boss know, That my task could be done by a monkey? "He has himself a deal," he did say, Though throught his cigar he had mumbled. "Now get your ass out, go away!" I fled, feeling chastened and humbled. These very old men were tougher than nails, But my idea had seemed so ideal, I texted my mentor with details, How I made a triangular deal. His return chime, gave me a surprise, I read, "Very good job on your own!" "I know what to say next otherwise," "Your girl said you must go straight home." The nicest thing about Nellie's place, Was the access from the underground. In minutes I once again saw her sweet face, And the steps I took three at a bound. Inward she beckoned to me with hand curled, It was festooned with feminine loot: A dress, shiny shoes, and even some pearls, And my first Armani suit. With deftness she undressed my clothes all, But not for the purpose of mating. She shopped till she dropped for this ball, So eagerly anticipating. It was time for her clothes to take flight, Displaying what true love had won. Since never I saw her in daylight, My jaw hit the ground, I was stunned! Nelly's skin was a pale golden, From her brows to the tips of her toes. Her limbs gently rounded with muscle, and She had a small cute upturned nose. Did I say once that her hair was sable? I saw that her navel was in, Her abdomen flat as a table, Flaring to hips made for sin. I noticed that she wore no lipstick, Her lips were so naturally red. Practical, cutting her nails to the quick, A sight that could arouse the dead. I know that I could say more here, About how much a vision she was. The rest of my life, she'll be my dear, Way long after her menopause. She noticed the way I was thinking, Or staring at her maybe not, Not knowing the scene she was making, She saw that my lap had gone taut. "Denali Dick!" she demanded. "Please get dressed sometime today!" "I know with my body you're so impressed," "Now you must put your weapon away." "Whatever you say, Ms. Nell the Fourth," I replied grinning while much embarrassed. A healthy male like me must respond, When I'm staring straight while she is bare assed! That said, I fully realized we had, An occasion which we had to attend. Having a mission, we're both so glad, To save the spirit of my boss, her friend. I had never before worn fancy clothes, I've never beheld a magnificent gift. Nor did I visit any fancy shows, Such as she's planning on the graveyard shift. The Hanes I were more familiar with, I had fresh set of socks and underwear. I donned them, an Oxford shirt, then suit, She wrapped a tie round my neck with some care. I had near the fun watching her dress, Though my weapon tarped and safely stowed. By her body last night it was blessed, Yet wrapped in a gold silk sarong, she glowed! She drove us in her car to a place, I could never afford the menu's prices. The atmosphere had an elegance and grace, Lunch was, chicken, in tandoori spices. Our next errand was the nursing home, Where our friend the Congressman's former wife, Lived out most of her days much alone, Outlived family by this point in life. She recognized Nellie on the spot, Said to us Wendy was her given name. They visited often, quite a lot, To talk, build puzzles, play any card game. My girl had developed Wendy's role, As part of her secret long term plan. To cure my employer's tortured soul, To restore his former pride as a man. Nellie shooed me out the room this time, So the two ladies could have some privacy. I next saw the lady dressed to the nines, Wendy is a stunner at seventy! The party had started already, We were late due to the foggy weather. Lounges, a buffet, music played steady, Private rooms down the hall for whatever. Nellie dragged me by the hand to one, The west wall was a full one-way mirror. As her disrobing of me begun, In it two girls tortured my senator. I watched the scene, fascinated yet repulsed, When finally one girl squatted then thrusted Over and over the old man convulsed Into this wet hole he finally trusted. After they screamed together, After they both caught their breath, The girl unmasked, it was Wendy. She fucked my mentor near to death. My friends eyes focused as he stared up, To see his old lover shout with glee, "I knew finally you could get it up!" In tears he asked her, "Will you marry me?" And so my girl and I made a high-five. She put my crow-bar into her core Which felt so so, and warm, and alive, And so we came together with a roar. Nellie and I flew back to Denali So I could show her off at home. This exotic new female buddy, From now I'd never be alone! "Right now I am on vacation." "My boss in Vegas, to remarry." "Speaking of that," I said with a grin, "Please meet my fiancee... Nellie!" Dad shared a glance with my mother, "Son, I see problems with your plan." He said, "You're only aged sixteen." "By law, you're not even a man." "Now all's well and good getting practice," "While you're in DC serving the nation." "No doubt she's prettier than an actress," "She looks quite fit for recreation!" Glaring at Dad with a frown on her face, Mom said, "People should marry like kinds." "Only trouble ever comes from mixing race," "I forbid you to cross color lines." "High society don't care, they eat crumpet." "We're poor God fearing folk, we aver." "Stay away from this heathen strumpet," "Or I'll call the police out on her!" Not valueing color, brown, yellow, or black; My parents' rejection was vivid. I tried to touch Nellie's hand, she held back. The face which my love bore turned livid. Under her shirt was a crucifix on a chain, Gently displayed it after retrieving, then, To my mother, she did then clearly proclaim, "You can NEVER say I am a heathen!" "In the lands north of us where I was born," "Long ago Rome sent a missionary." "In due time my village converted." "I was baptized when I was a baby," "I learned songs, and to hunt as I'm able." "I have reverence for my family and culture." "I was home-schooled, by book and by Bible." "You can't take those away, you sick vulture!" She marched out the house on that day. I didn't want to lose her, I was scared. She turned on me, screaming, "You stay far AWAY!" "For them I was never prepared!" "I love you," I said, "And you don't understand..," Pointing her hand to my house, she said, "Go." "You love is a boy's, not that of a man's." "Loving one thing of me, as you know." "That's unfair," I said; "Doesn't matter," she sighed. "You're underage, and your mother's a bigot." "This can't be made right, we'd be living a lie." "For you and I, truth means a whole lot." I responded, "My culture is junk now," "I want to learn of yours as I go." "I'll turn my back on my parents forever," "And follow you into the snow." Slanted eyes sad, she kissed me softly, I saw tears of pain drip down her face. "I can't make you do that," she said quietly, "You must help the whole human race." "You can only do that if you have power." "You can only do that if you have wealth." "If you have no way to explore all your ideas," "You'd quickly lose your mental health." Adamant in the convictions of her heart, Of doubts, she never let show. We embraced standing till sunset, Then she left, to where, I don't know. Subsequently I stayed with my parents, I was moping in town all that week. Bored, I walked to see something different, The Malamute Saloon did I seek. Constructed in the Roaring Twenties, It functioned spectacularly. It was a whorehouse till the sixties. Reopening as a museum recently. After I paid my buck fifty, I read each explaining card. Then running out of exhibits to see, I wandered from cribs to the bar. The bartender, thin, balding, and gray, Had a mustache and a long nose too. He smiled, and hailed me with: "Laddie, hey!" "Is there something which I can get you?" "Can I trouble you for Diet Shasta?" I said, "Indeed yes, I am thristy!" "Anyway, I can't put it past 'ya." "Can you help to find me a lady?" Grinning he said, "That's a good joke!" "As a brothel, this place had gone broke!" "But, laddie, you look like you lost one." "Her loss, seems you're a good bloke." How she looked, her smarts, and her virtue. I explained to him, till chimed the sixth bell, Inflicting on him the punchline, too. That I dared to date a girl named Nell! "I love her so much", my voice quavered so, "Tell her that, if she comes here someday," "I'm a man, even if sixteen, even so," "I wish I could show her some way." "Laddie, I don't know what I would do." "All girls are Eskimo Nell, as you'll see." "By the way, two bucks for the soda to you." "You'll find her, if it's meant to be!" Alone at home, with two days to reboard, To leave on the return air flight. BANG BANG I heard on the front door, Which I opened to view a grand sight. I swear the man stood seven feet tall, The same I had guessed of his girth. But on him was no fat at all. On his face showed no sign of mirth. His head was shaved completely bald, No wrinkles could I sight. Of age the only sign he showed, Were eyebrows of pure snowy white. "Boy," he rumbled, very softly. But it seemed the entire house shook. "My little girl talks of you constantly," "Since she chose you, I thought I should look." "Three days she's cried without ceasing." "I asked her to tell me the reason." "She'd not tell me, ignored my pleading." "It seems your family saw her as treason." "But you, she said, were willing to leave." "All you know, so with her you could cleave." "I would accept this, so all that I ask," "Is for you to perform one heroic task." "As bride price I therefore request," "Something more than man makes from a book." "Getting it will put you much to the test," "So I ask that you bag a Nanook." I gasped, whispering, "No, sir!" Then I gave him a furious glare, Stronger than any cutting laser, He's wanting pelt from a polar bear! "How dare you," I spoke to his demand. "This species is threatened, at least!" "A mission like this proves nothing, sir!," "I won't kill this magnificent beast." "But I can go you one better," "If we start now before it's too late." "Since currently it is the season," "For the polar bears to hibernate." "I read NASA wants some serum," "Derived from a sleeping bear's blood." "But it's useless to just trank one." "Analyzing would get clear as mud." "I propose that I take a syringe," "And draw some out from its rear." "A worthy goal which will not infringe," "Of the laws, or the ethics here." Nell's father stared at me astonished, "When the bear wakes, it will kill you." "Will my girl want that?" he admonished, I asked him, "What else can I do?" "Her, no one can ever replace," "No one else I even desire!" "Men hibernating in deep space," "Is worth this deed, even if dire." "So let's go find us a clinic," "So they can loan us a trocar." "I must leave a note, then we leave quick," "The distance will likely be far." While the muscular man just stood here. I wrote what I thought of my cause. I would leave school, and a decent career, And be useful to my new in-laws. "I love you both," I also wrote down, "Respect my choice," I did implore. "If you love me, read the Good Book, And find Genesis two, twenty-four." "I will face trials, please pray for me," I lastly signed "Richard", my name. I showed the note for the old man to see. Since my feelings had nothing for shame. I put the note down on the table, To him I extended my hand. He took it in his, he felt able, To say, "Call me Quinn, young man." Wasting no time, we then did depart, Sitting in back in his snow-cat. Feeling a twinge of guilt in my heart, The house went away, that was that. Stopping briefly on the town's edge, At a practicing veterinarian. Quinn whispered to her of my pledge, She nodded, approving my mission. We rode again, up hills and down, Then saw the sun finally sank, Stopped at a deserted ghost town, Where Quinn refilled the cat's tank. I saw we headed north, from my seat, We drove for days without slowing. From buried caches we got dried meat, And more fuel to keep us going. We found camp under a snow mound, He unlocked a thick wooden door. Made a fire with stored wood found, And taught me some Inuit lore. Quinn fed me very well that night, On canned Spam, pickles and cheese. In the morning, when I woke up. It was sunny and nary a breeze. "I want you to stay here a while." He said, then took off in his cat. Returning later, said with a smile. "I think I know where your bear's at." I boarded his cat one final time, And drove near a cave in a hill. Quinn handed me binoculars, And what I saw made my breath still. In the cave was the bear to hunt, In fear my teeth started to chatter. "Is this what you really want?" He asked.I felt my life didn't matter. "My price is only a bear pelt." Quinn said with barely a twinge. Glaring at him, I held my hand out, And in it he slapped the syringe. "When the blood's drawn, the bear will give chase." "I will run as fast as I can." "Get ready to floor it, so we leave this place." "Tell your daughter this wasn't your plan." I pushed aside my blood curdling fear, Creeping up with this needle of mine. I thanked God I was facing its rear, Plunging it gently near its spine. I had no idea at all how much time, It would take for the bear to awake. I suddenly heard a grumble and whine, Was it enough?Ten cc's did I take. Removing the needle, I spun in place, Sprinting across the cave floor. Halfway toward the threshold, I heard an earth shattering ROAR! I'm outside! Ten more feet to Quinn's sled! I knew I was dead if I dared to look back. I got hit hard on the side of my head, I blacked out, hearing a rifle crack. Next I knew, I saw sunlight filter To half-brightness, color of bluish green. Body feeling colder and weaker My state of existence, of in-between. Waving lithe arms, kicking each long leg, A girl with golden hair, came toward me. Green eyes, blue lips, skin pale as an egg, I swam to meet with her under the sea. She had small pale breasts, but even so, She's so pretty I wanted to nail her. She said, "You're breathing, here down below. You do not seem like a drowning sailor!" I told the girl, "My name is Richard." She said, "And my name is Amalthea. I am finding food for my household. The fishing's good, what are you doing here?" I told her I should be at death's door A polar bear had hurt me really bad, This was no heaven I knew before, If it was, my friends would be very sad. "You see I'm beautiful in your mind." (Can't help being a virile young man.) "According to the fashion of my kind, I see you're a very fine specimen!" Thinking what we could do together Here in the cold green currents of the sea; Feeling a stir by just seeing her, Made her eyes widen staring down at me! Breathing faster, our pulses quickened, We closed the five foot gap of salt water. We embraced, completely unfrightened By the differences of our nature. Her blue lips touching mine, tasting sweet, Her tongue in my mouth tasting salty, too. I moved to suckle on a shell-shaped teat, Then said, "I want to make love into you!" Almathea grabbed me where it mattered, Shoved my hardness onto her hairless cleft. Wrapped her legs around my waist shattered, My mind, I slid in her, not an inch left. Legs on my back pinned her waist to mine, Secured against both her fore and aft. Floating, we are sublimely entwined, Her inside muscles massaging my shaft! I stay still, balls deep in her body, She plays with me in her she would want, Strong and slow, then sweet and fluttery, I near faint, blasting my guts in her cunt! My sight clears. I see in her clear face Her utter contentment, and in her eyes Affection for me, love for this place. She vanished, ere I could say my good-byes. Upon my dream's end, I felt pain. "Richard! Dear Richard!" a girl said. "Please wake up!" she spoke again, "Please wake, I know you aren't dead!" She was patting my hands and feet, Trying to wake me as best she can. To slumber I wanted to retreat, But that was not a part of her plan. Therefore, I opened my eyes, To see the beautiful face I knew. This was to my amazing surprize, I assumed she and I were through! Feeling within a bit of dread, Glancing around, I could now see: I was trapped in a hospital bed, My adventure not fatal, evidently. Each side of my head had a padded block, And I was immobilized in all ways. I heard loud ticking from the wall clock. She could see rising panic in my gaze. She approached, so I could see, Her eyes were red from sleeplessness. I spoke, whispering, "I love you." "I know," she said, giving a tender kiss. "I want you to obey the doctor," "I want you to be fully mended." "You give all your self, that I adore," "I lost you once, but now we're not ended." Touched, my eyes started to fill, My tears falling, she kissed them away. "Relax!" she ordered me, "And we will," "Discuss our future some other day." She left the room, turned off the light, Happy and content, I made a long sigh. I no longer felt I had to fight, Plaintively behind the door she asked, "Why?" "He's a tenderfoot," I heard Quinn's voice, "I would have given him rifle and knife." "To make the minimum quest for you," "At token risk to his own life." "He wanted to prove something far more." "He would not kill a bear as a prize." "Wanting to show how letting it live," "Makes far more difference to peoples' lives." "Father..," Nellie's pitch and voice rose, "I waited two weeks to say this plain!" "Now that my man from his coma arose," "What you permitted WAS FRIGGIN' INSANE!!" "It was his plan," her dad protested. I heard an echoing slap in reply. She growled, enraged, "What he requested," "I think an unconscious wish to die." "Your dishonest rationalization," "Is what I will never, EVER abide!" "Hunting bear might be your suggestion." "But he changed it to near suicide." He said, "His death was not my plan," "Still, he made it against all odds." "I'm really sorry. But..," said the man, "Now, what you share seems destined by gods." With guilt, she replied, "I am unfair." "I lashed out at you from purest hate." "That's unworthy of a shaman's heir," "I am so wrong to blame you for fate." No more of thier talk did I hear as I laid, With my mind fading back into sleep, Wondering, what price my body paid, To gain at long last, her to keep? I awoke next morn, the nurse came by. Checking my urine catheter, Made sure my head did straightly lie. Departing, three people came after. The first I loved with all my might, The second of course was her father. The third dressed in a coat of white, Embroidered with his name, a doctor. "Your blow is to your right temple." "Its momentum had broken your neck." "Of shattered bones there were ample," "Your spinal cord we had to check." "You also had a concussion," "As well as a broken skull." "Amazingly our discussion," "Is a sign of a miracle." "For twelve days we kept you under," "To stabilize, and bones to set." "Afterward, you took a slumber," "We don't think that you'll go home yet." "Now I'm here to find the extent," "Of spinal cord abrasions." "Please tell me as I touch you." "If you can feel sensations." The doctor tapped every finger, Then he tapped every toe, Nellie stood to hear me whisper, I could feel each tap below. "You are a very lucky young man." The physician did conclude. "After some weeks, I think you can stand," "While you wait, keep a good attitude." The doctor then excused himself, We three collectively exhaled. I would soon again be in full health, Also a fully functioning male. That was what I was thinking, But a police officer came, I saw with my hopes sinking, That she called out Nellie's name. When I left home, my parents set Against Nellie an arrest warrant. They had made good on thier threat, But I felt their action abhorrent. The officer read Nellie the charge, For lewd and lascivious conduct. I scraped enough strength to enlarge, My voice, shouting "No!" to disrupt. The lady put her ear over my lips, I whispered as I couldn't yell, I asked her for some ice chips, She fed me, crossed her arms, asked "Well?" The ice helped me use my voice, So I told her what I had meant: That Nelly was the girl of my choice, And I was of the age of consent. She said, "You're not legitimate," "For an adult, even if she did ask ya." I whispered, "That is so full of it," "We never had sex in Alaska." I destroyed the charge, in one bold stroke. I said she and I met in DC. Was Alaska planning to attempt, Extraterritoriality? After more ice, in this sterile palace, I said the state had no case. My parents filed charges with malice, Since they did not like Nellie's race! The officer looked at me. Waiting, Nell Sat, folding hands in nervous tension. "You'll be a good lawyer someday, well," She said, "I will use my discretion." Wagging her finger at us, "You two," "Stay out of trouble, in the meanwhile!" "With the warrant, this is what I'll do:" "It goes to the bottom of my pile." Combing her hand through my hair laying wild, Giving a half-hug around Nellie's vest. She left my room, just at the door, smiled, "Please be happy.I wish you the best." Sight darkening, my room was spinning. And I again fell fast asleep. I used my last strength remaining, As I faded, to see Nellie weep. Next day, waking once again, I glanced, To see her sleep in a nearby chair. I was so glad she had the chance, To rest, arms covered by her hair. I got just a little stronger, With every passing day. Soon did not need the blocks any longer, After my neck had one final X-ray. Each time I woke she was there with me. There was not a more devoted nurse. If there was aught that I needed. She'd be the one to bring it first. Finally, after day thirty, Nellie brought in someone she befriended. A lady she said was Ms. Ann Sarri, Who taught at the school she attended. Ann had a long oval face, Dark eyes over a very proud nose. Platinum hair, the color of lace, Slim but nice figure, as women goes. Nellie said, "She's here for two reasons." "The first of which, I will let her say." "Ann, please go and tell Richard." "Why officially you're here today." At this point, my neck was good again. Supporting the whole weight of my head. I could even turn without pain. I asked Nellie to raise my bed. Ms. Sarri stood nearby us both, where, Starting her report: "Your sample," "From the hibernating polar bear," "We compared with a tranked control." "Using a gas chromatograph," "And a spectroscope we analyzed." "A subtle difference was found by staff," "Isolated, purified, and crystallized." "We injected some of it into mice," "Who became unconcious in minutes." "They woke unharmed in days, very nice!" "The mean drop was twenty Celcius." "We'll continue to study the effects." "But it will benefit all nations." "Against patents here's an advance check." "I offer our congratulations." Before I could have the fidgets, Ann held the check before my face. I saw a number, pi with eight digits, But it had no decimal place! The award felt so unreal, disjoint, For my deed upon the snowy hill. A modest quest to prove a point: Show Nellie's father, I need not kill. "Lordy, ma'am," I said hushed, in fear. "What ever am I going to do?" The scientist grinned, standing near. Shrugged, "Ms. Nellie can invest it for you." "My other reason:" said Ms. Sarri, "We've been net pals since she could walk." "I'll stand guard, for privacy," "Outside the door, so you two can talk." To leave us alone for a short while, The lady stepped out at a quick pace. Nellie making a carnivorous smile, Touched my gown at a sensitive place. Murmured, "I think the doctor forgot," "In his recent visit I have no doubt." Tracing circles while my face grew hot. "There's one place left we must check out!" Undoing some ties, exposing me there. While absently with her other hand, Dragging toward me her chair, I felt my throbbing manhood stand. "Much more like it!" she whispered in joy, "So please, keep your voice down low." "Take your medicine like a good boy," "Close your eyes, let the sensations flow." Toward me she bent even lower, Gave my glans a deep wet kiss. Licked her tongue around my corona, I moaned softly in utter bliss. Slowly through her lips, my shaft slid. Final sight enchantment on her face. Her hair fell forward, cheeks and eyes hid, I'm feeling in a heavenly place. Since my cock is only average when hard, Both in girth and in length, She could keep moving slowly downward, When done cover my entire strength. I laid my head back, my passion growed, She moved a bit faster up and down. Taking my virginity for this mode. Swirling her tongue all around. The most incredible feelings she gave, To me as I let my feelings down south, Overtake me like a tidal wave, Of vivid hues, surge into her mouth. Feelings exploding over and over, Dimly concerned of the mess I'd make. But every drop would Nellie capture, No evidence would ever escape! "Wow!" was the only word I could say. For a concept I'd no words to know. She tucked me back in the gown where I lay, Feeling blessed by the afterglow. "Think nothing of it," she said airily. "I'm finding, I'm liking your flavor." "I'm thrilled about how you treated me." "I wanted to return the favor." How we met, was it really fate? I wondered about her compliment. In DC, were we a sudden hot date, Or was it somehow not an accident? "Nellie, please," I asked, "Why me?" "I don't feel special in God's scheme." "I don't understand you. Don't you agree," "I've deduced you're far more than you seem?" Her sunshine hidden by a cloud. She was turning inward, I could tell. Her gaze covered by memory's shroud. And sadness under a bottomless well. "Believe in what I feel," said the girl, "I love you. You're special, in my sight!" "While I have some history to tell," "Accept that as a given, all right?" "Long ago in the late sixties," "My father had developed great fame." "Even a song was written about him," "Mentioning him by his given name." "Traveling the world over," "Able to win over beast and man." "Translating a part of our culture," "In ways everyone could understand." "All loved him, though he only was won," "By a very sweet loving flower child." "Her hair like the carpet of the sun," "Eyes of sky, from the prarie, growing wild." "She showed him she was the final part," "Of the puzzle of his philosophy." "Soon his child grew under her heart," "Deeply in love they would soon marry." "He brought her back up to the north," "He built a home for them to reside." "But the baby faced a difficult birth," "His son was stillborn, and she died." "With alcohol, he hid his horror," "His spirit so crushed by this hurt!" Nellie shivered in utter terror, Grasping her crucifix through her shirt. "Daddy was deeply for decades lost," "But my mom, a registered nurse," "Eventually earned his love and trust," "Finding him help for the bottle's curse." Using tissues to wipe her face, She no longer looked quite so forlorn, Continuing, "After some years of peace," "They had a daughter:I was born." "Dad is the last of his line," "Of shamans, regarded as near royal." "Mom in her right is a unique find," "Descending from an extremely tough girl." I saw Nellie a lot more relaxed, Holding my hand, hers felt like satin. "When the blood from my parents mixed," She grinned, "Consider, just what would happen?" "I was talking at four months," "And I was walking at six." "At two I began reading at once," "And multiply numbers at three for kicks." "I could go on, and on, you see." "There's much smarter individuals." "Mom initially home schooled me," "Paid tutors from Dad's residuals." "Dad, being completely recovered," "Taught trapping, hunting, throwing a lance." "I heard with wonder, when I discovered," "How beautiful were the sounds of his chants!" "My party for college graduation," "Doubled as my sweet sixteen." "Oh, it was a great celebration!" "My majors voice and accounting." Nellie took time to catch her breath, A little more tightly, clasping my hand. Now far away from recalling death, Her spirit sparkling once again. Declaring, "It gets better, just wait!" "Dad and other elders of the clan," "Commissioned me to find out the state," "Of assets, and create a financial plan." "It was such an incredible mess!" "I found personal use of public accounts." "Even after fifty years, we possessed," "Only seed money in modest amounts." "I 'prenticed to a Pacific tai-pan," "Teaching me what I needed to do." "Multiplying, diversifying clan" "Holdings a hundred fold in value." "Last year Mr. McPaine had the keys," "To being able to persuade some others," "To help us recover more royalties," "Unpaid from some minerals discovered." "I was paying a courtesy call," "At his office when you first arrived." "You didn't see me lay eyes on you," "But my emotions began singing inside." "Before you, only one touched me," "The TA at a class I took part. "After the prom he tried to rape me," "Killed him with his own knife, this broke my heart." "Even after two years waiting," "Scared to open my feelings again." "Following you carefully, watching," "You interact with your mentor and friends." "Since you are a congressional page." "I found on you some information." "Being a high school senior your age," "Means your smarts are somewhat uncommon." "Walking the old man to my building," "Your visits were my final guidance." "Sitting, drinking soda, only waiting." "Not tempted to search out any tenants." Moving off the visitor's chair to stand, Nellie was already close to see. Leaning over she held both my hands. With a serious tone, saying straight to me: "Family should be your first loyalty." "I was raised like that all along." "Turning you back felt like agony." "I apologize.I did you a great wrong." "I still might have let things stand right there." "But learning you almost died for me," "Drawing blood from that polar bear," "Opened my eyes and made me see." "Your love and courage are beyond measure." "Your parents have issues, but you have none." "You're loyal to all you befriend and serve." "My thoughts and feelings agree, you're the one!" Everything finally falling in place. She has more virtues than I could guess. Not realistic to share an embrace, I just said one word solemnly:"Yes." "Yes?" she asked anxiously. "Yes," I confirmed, "I know what I must do." "I left reminding my folks of Genesis," "And that my wish was to be with you." "Did they disown me after all?" "I am so surprised they never came." "Please help me make a cell phone call." "It's time to end this sickening game!" In great surprise my girl's jaw dropped, But she nodded okay to me silently. Walked to the door, quietly knocked, In strode our good friend Ms. Sarri. With my fingers I beckoned them closer. I recited to Nelly several digits. "Speakerphone, please," I asked her. While I fought off a case of the fidgets. I heard no ringing, amazingly. Someone immediately picked up. I then heard my father's voice calmly. Saying, "Okay Richard, what's up?" I stated, "Nellie called you on her phone." "We had a reconciliation." "Tomorrow I would get shipped home." "Instead I want emancipation." Deafening silence was the reply. We all feared soon we would hear hollers. To his credit, my dad gave a sigh, Saying, "Not for a million dollars!" I asked him, "How about ten mil?" While I smiled and winked towards Ann. "I'll also pay the hospital bill," "Shouldn't that be an acceptable plan?" Without a further pause, my Dad said, "If that's a joke, it's not quite funny." "And if it isn't, I wonder instead." "If you're beginning to earn drug money." I declaimed, "None of the above!" "Have you heard news of me and a bear?" "Why, is the punchline you will love." "Hibernating, I took blood from there." "We sent the sample from the creature." "To a major pharmaceutical." "They found a compound with a new feature." "I netted thirty one million in all." "If you took ten, Dad, I'm still set for life." "So please, I'll send you a courier." "I want between us no further strife." "You're paid, after signing the paper." Tension wound tighter than one might cope, So quiet you could hear a dropped pin. Nellie, Ann, and I linked our hands in hope, Dad finally said, "Okay, son. You win." "Um, Richard, though your suit we refused," "We had worried lots before your call." "From both your note, then later the news." "Your mother had become hysterical." "I've never known you to make a bluff." "I'll suspend doubts that this is true." "Just a hundred thousand is good enough," "But, please talk with her, why don't you?" After a pause, I asked, "Are you there, too?" I heard a breath, then Mom said my name. I said, "I'm sorry how much I hurt you." "She needs apologies just the same." I nodded to Nellie, who took the phone, And switched the speakerphone mode off. Sitting on a floor corner, all alone. Listening, then talking low and soft. I laid back my head to rest, Ms. Sarri standing, holding my hand. Praying silently for the best, That all would become well in the end. Nellie walked back to my hospital bed, So I could finish the call with Mom, "She has forgiven us," my mother said, In a voice more relaxed and calm. "I told her a few things, regarding," "My irrational emnity." "So intense I was just beyond caring," "Your Great-Grampa done adultery." "It was our deep family secret," "Which we bore in such great shame." "Your parents with very great regret," "Could already guess your girlfriend's name." "I've told her that in due course." "We'll welcome her back to our family." "You had to apply great moral force." "Please forgive your stubborn dad and me." Then I heard my father tell, "I'll still sign what you're suggesting." "But you won't need it if only for Nell," "You and her will have both our blessing." I said, "I love you both! Thank you!" "Today we've made such excellent progress." "I'm sure Nellie appreciates it too," "May I go north with her to convalesce?" Not hesitating Dad said, "Okay, besides," "I'll get in touch with the hospital," Nellie, beaming, made fists at her sides, Exultant! And so, we ended the call. After hearing all that, Ann Sarri, Acting far younger than her years. Faced us both, clapping rapidly, Her eyes dazzled by happy tears. Nellie said soft in awe, "Richard, I swear," "I'm so incredibly proud of you!" "Your deed even braver than with the bear," "Blazing our trail back straight and true." I noticed how dark the windows were then. Could not help but give an audible yawn, Discovered the time was after eleven, Both ladies noticed my exhaustion. Facing Nellie one last time, I said, "My fatigue is so bad, it could appall." "But, remember, when you go to bed," "My words: To me, you are worth it all." Just after she turned out the light, A minute's kiss was her answer to me. "You will like," her parting words that night. "My idea of physical therapy!" I slept ten hours without a care, Sunshine woke me in a mood joyous. The doctor discharged me in a wheelchair, My body, idle, gained some weakness. Nellie rolled me into the van, Her father keeping me company. She sat up front, driving was Ann. He explained the rest of his story: "Thankfully the bear took seconds to wake," "When you took the needle from it's end south." "That bought you time needed to escape," "Truly I felt my heart in my mouth." "When the creature finally caught up." "It hit you on the side of the head." "I couldn't leave you that way, yup," "I knew I too could become very dead." "I never realized anyone would follow," "To come and save us both from harm." "Nellie thought I was getting in trouble," "So she brought with her, a good firearm." "Our household has a Marlin .450," "Dropping, with hollow point, the bear clean." "No room for error, and the range iffy," "Showing us all she had Deadeye Dick's gene!" As I listened to her father in wonder. She interrupted, in a voice strong. "Dad's sled has a GPS transponder." "Coordinates telling me something's wrong." "At reckless speeds, I drove my sled, then," "With worst case thoughts in my head, I fear." "Finding my father in front of a den," "I wasn't sure if I should interfere." "Setting up where he can't see, to cope." "Rifle on tripod at two hundred yard." "I also attached a sniper scope," "My idea to play an invisible guard." "Hearing the angered creature out there." "Quickly deciding where I must aim." "Midway between my father and its lair." "Waiting patiently for the endgame." "I saw someone run out in a blur." "Nanook caught him, slapped his head, made him drop." "Giving me a instant's clean target, where," "Prayed while firing, its heart I did stop." Quinn interjected, "Great going, girl!" "She sprinted to us with a first aid kit." Nellie countered, "I was gonna hurl!" "Seeing so much blood, thinking, 'Oh, shit!'" "Mom's training of me was extremely good," "I swung instantly into action," "Putting direct pressure on his carotid," "As I released slowly, Dad slapped a patch in." "He had a pulse, but breathing was gone," "I cleared his airway, breathing for him." "Dad called for help on my cell phone." "He keeps none, his habit so dim." "I didn't fall out of my battle brace," "Until the medivac 'copter came." "Boarding, I recognized Richard's sweet face," "At last I knew, so I screamed his name!" Sobbing hard, with her head in her hands. We chose to give her some minutes for peace. Her father took the thread up again, To try to tie up loose ends, at least. "Richard, as my daughter said to you," "She saved our lives near that hill." "To Fairbanks Regional she flew too.," "A shadow of herself, silently still." "I stayed behind to clean up the mess." "I took the pelt, finished the field dress." "Finding your syringe, I packed it in ice." "You won it for such a horrible price." "Reflecting I acted like a clod," "I cached the meat under piles of snow." "Retrieving the gun and its tripod," "Then giving Nellie's snow-cat a tow." "I realized by the end of the day," "My part in this was so incorrect." "But Fairbanks was hundreds of miles away." "I rang her phone, it wouldn't connect." Plenty to go around, was the blame. We rode the miles, in pensive silence, Quinn stared at the floor in deepest shame. Next to speak, was the girl of science: "I first heard of this from Nellie's dad," "Fearing he was losing his daughter." "He sent me an email, making me sad." "Her boyfriend barely escaping slaughter." "He never knew what I did for a living," "He never cared about my occupation." "His child sees me like an older sibling," "He begged me for an intervention." "I connected with him on Skype," "Asking him the cause of this debacle." "He webcammed the reason for this hype." "Explaining, Richard, your small miracle." "Because the way bears are tranquilized," "Disturbs how some proteins fit at all," "Renders blood unfit to isolate," "The prion making it possible." "Decades searching fruitlessly," "This molecule eluded detection." "In news another man planned to try," "With armor for self preservation." "You most likely read this news long before," "Quinn suggested a likely bride price." "In a flash of insight, you, I am sure," "Chose speed over armor, rolling the dice." "In a major upset of everyone's plan," "It seems you beat them all to it," "And I never heard that the other man," "Finished armor and went through with it. "I do molecular biology," "Told him I won't have this chance again." "So, he shipped it on dry ice to me," "Overnight, it arrived in Copenhagen." "It only took a few days before I," "And my staff found the structure hidden." "To my closest friend I then would fly, "Over the pole, my science now done." "At Fairbanks airport, I gave her." "An explanation from my perspective," "Regarding the reason for your dare." "Nellie yelled at me, streams of invective." "She cussed at you, me, herself, and Quinn." "I let her go on for several minutes." "Opened my arms, which she flew into," "I held her while she cried some buckets." So ended Ms. Ann Sarri's speech, She'd known my intent immediately. Unstated loudly was the way each, One of us hurt her friend very badly. Frontward, I did plainly assert, To Nellie's bowed head, in a low voice. "What I did, was not worth your hurt." "With hindsight, I'd make a different choice." "If I had never seen you again," "I'd still know you would have been well." "How I tried, with the risk in my plan," "Almost put you in your private hell." She told me without turning around, "See now how real is a consequence?" "I see your scars, mine you've now found." "Let's just go forward, does that make sense?" Reaching her headrest, touching her hair, Vowing, "My life I'll never risk again." "Unless to save you, or those whom I care," "For nothing less will I choose it to spend!" Nellie reached back, placed her hand on mine. A silent long while, we rode that way. One missing connection was left to find. A nagging thought, I found words to say: "I know how wierd this is gonna sound," "Nellie and I broke up completely." "Mister Quinn, just how was it you found," "Your daughter's boyfriend, so damn quickly?" He shrugged, "It was so clear she forced it." "She'd never tell me who you were." "Yet so different from that twit," "From school, I realize she made the error." "It's her privilege to throw away," "A boy whose manners needs no defense." "But there I might have let it stay," "Till a friend made the whole thing make sense." I snapped my fingers, shouting, "Aha!" "It was the museum bartender!" The old man replied, "You got it! Yeah," "He called me later, since he knows her." The bartender's advice had been healing, Cheered me up while I cried in root beer. But now I rolled my eyes at the ceiling, "'All girls can be Nell?'", asked with a sneer. "That's the man's advice, for heaven's sakes.". "Perhaps it is even applicable." "But to me all girls are like snowflakes." "Unique. Precious. Irreplaceable!" Quinn said, "Try hearing it from my end." "His call to me lasted an hour." "Every detail you told my friend," "Made it seem she could walk on water!" "I realized some things didn't add up." "Nellie's extremely impressed with you." "She wouldn't say why you two broke up." "You kept silent on the matter too." "My only clue was your full name." "On debit card read by the bartender." "When I shared with my wife that very same, "She said you two shared an ancestor." "DEADEYE DICK!" shouted Nellie and I. "Yes indeed," her father said, grimly. "With four generations gone by," "My wife still knew her family tree." "Um... sir," I began hesitantly, "Nellie and I exchanged old pictures." "We found sharing a link in history," "Reinforced mutual desires." Quinn cleared his throat as a preamble, "That's more information, young sir." "Than I think right now I can handle." "To finish this, is what I'd prefer." "I'd taken matters into my own hands." "Since I hadn't known, that you knew." "Being distant relations, made you clan," "So I offered tribal courtesies to you." "Had you accepted at face value," "My assistance to make a major kill," "Custom would let you force the issue," "And checkmate her with a proposal." Nellie sighed, "Dad, now I understand." "That could even been a workable plan." Dropped my fingers, turned, taking his hand. "Don't you think I can find my own man?" "Sweetheart," he said tenderly, "Though," "Finding the man of your wildest dreams," "You dropped him like a hot potato," "Acting, like you had gone to extremes." Gripping her dad's hands in hers tightly, Staring in his eyes with anguished pain. "Richard's folks met me with bigotry." "He's faultless, but I had to abstain." "Last night he amazed me on his own." "Armed with proceeds from his victory," "He faced them both down, using my phone," "Had his mom apologize to me." "On the spot, I found from his mother," "The reason she had taken her stand." "Deadeye Dick, my own great-grandfather," "Had already been a married man!" Dismayed, Quinn gave a long low whistle, At the end of which, remarked, "Oh, shit." "That's why you split from Richard after all!" "I wish you had told me about it." "I could have met with both you and him." "I could have helped you two work it out." "We could have bypassed his mother's whim," "You both felt wronged by the world, no doubt." "Till now, no one had the entire story." "None of us really deserved this." "The crucial facts not in the poetry." "Robert did us all a 'dis-Service'." "It's a miracle, that's my belief!" "Richard and Nellie, you might agree." "By the literal skin of our teeth," "Our families barely missed tragedy." "We've ten minutes more to our concourse." "I believe that's just enough time," His eyes had a wicked light, of course! "For telling you some of that old rhyme." "Dad!" a scandalized Nellie did wail, Stopped her ears, tried ignoring him. "Gather 'round..," he did not stop the tale, Even while she was imploring him. Interrupting father's recital, Our van soon arrived at the airport, Making her feel forever grateful, She didn't need to cut his life short! First we returned the van to Budget, Nellie rolled me out in the wheelchair, Quinn checked in our bags without a sweat, Ann reconfirmed us at Alaska Air. We found Ms. Sarri's flight would first go. After viewing gate designations, She had to fly out to Chicago, Take SAS to Copenhagen. We had a half hour till boarding, Nellie and Ann walked to a corner, We didn't know the words they're saying, Heard only tones in a low murmur. My girl removed from her linen shirt, A treble clef shaped in fine silver, Holding Ann's digit, made a small hurt, Then she pricked her own finger. Pressing her wound against that of Ann, From her four foot eight, Nellie stared, Up at her first teacher, first friend, I saw her lips move, silent words aired. I knew they needed privacy, stole, Guilty glances at thier tableux, Ann's face showed she was touched to her soul, By words far greater than she's used to. With a mighty hug, they sealed the pact, The time it took interminable, Nellie pinned Ann's shirt, in fact, To show they're now inseparable. Walking back to where I was sitting, Ann tilted my chin upward, said, "Be good to her, or else!" kissing, Me with affection, on the forehead. Striding over to the old man, Whispering something into his ear, Which made him blush, while she embraced him, I perceived her words lent him some cheer. Her flight announced general boarding, Time for our proven friend to leave us, Walking through the gate, turned to us, waved, Wishing us joy and happiness. Discovering they had changed the gate, They sent us a jitney to get us there, Just for me they were holding the flight, Fairbanks to Kotzebue, seconds to spare. Nellie had another surprize in store, Because I was still recovering. She and I would be close together, The trip had mostly first class seating! Her father would be right behind us, Seated at the very front of coach, Asked earlier if he minded this, Replied her choice was beyond reproach. Attendants lifting me to my feet, Buckled me into a chair so soft, She crabbed across to the window seat, In ten minutes, our jet was aloft. Soon dinner came, we ate eagerly, Beef Wellington with pilaf this time. She shared her glass with me, discreetly, Having my first taste of sparkling wine. I felt wiped out.Concerned by the sight, Food and exhaustion giving me cause. She sang soft to me, "All Through The Night." Some nearby clapped in quiet applause. Glancing rightward at the girl I chose. Her eyes rimmed in red, too long awake. Lifting the armrest, we snuggled close, Content, and letting sleep overtake. I awoke later, just before dawn, Just before the stars faded away. I saw Venus close to the sun, Rising in red to another day. I studied the face of my companion, Finding it quite hard to reconcile, Verses for the original woman, With she who slept with a gentle smile. Fighters, like ladies, have a basic plan. Share superficial anatomy. They were sleek, they could fly, they could land, Moved with your stick quite sensitively. Trying to think on this, gave me then, My only functional simile: Vought F4U Corsair, against a FAST-packed Veritech Valkyrie! Elder version the best of her day, A power ride for men with potency. My first girl who took me all the way, Pulled high gees to orbital velocity! Nellie had more degrees of freedom, Than her foremother could ever see. Having so much internal dimension, Schooling to a better life was her key. Soon we had landed in Kotzebue, We knew we that Quinn would be our host His wife gave us all a hug too, Then served for dinner a caribou roast. Contrary to any possible hype, No great wealth was shown by this family. Their house was a five bedroom ranch type, But nearly bare, furnished very simply. There was to be seen no television, Or any gadgets modern or nifty. Lit was a roaring hot fireplace, On the mantle the Marlin .450 Finishing with peach and apple pies, Us four moved over to the living room. Turned my head to see with my own eyes, The gun used to save two men from doom. The girl took it off the mantlepiece, Brought it to me to touch with my own hand. In a wheelchair, not given release, To carry any load at all, or stand. She slid my hand over the weapon's steel, Hearing her whispers were like a carol, For my ears only: to her I feel, As stiff, long, wide, and hard as its barrel. Needing more weeks to get strong again, Sat in bed, she sits on it close to wait. Bending my waist to hold her, in pain, But far too weak to even masturbate! Nellie begins sitting just out of reach. Letting me hug her every tenth time, I did sit-ups for her, ten reps each, Each reward felt to me just so sublime. Next week she wanted to raise my knees, To my chest, I could kiss her nips every ten, Push-ups over her so I could please My sadistic coach once more clothed again! Week following she made me push up, With my feet, suspending her in mid-air, Each leg press equal to her own weight, Each time down she kissed me lightly, with care. Her folks away from home for a date, In front of the bed she lets her clothes fall. Says, "Come and catch me before its too late!" I lumber upright, respond to her call. Best I could do was walk in my chase, Of her and her female charms 'round the house. She'd stay feet ahead during our race, Not letting me touch her without her blouse! Hour later I caught fair and square, With no more moments lost I claimed the prize, Though my love took pity on me where, I laid back, her on top, she exercised. When I caught her five times in a row, Chasing her nude, one room to another, She pointed outward through the window, Told me I had to chase her clothed outside. She raised the stakes, if her I captured, She'd do something to me so very special. A present to me, to make me enraptred, In reward for my hard work physical. Around the block, over and over, Nellie would stay just a foot out of reach. I ran, trying to reach and touch her, Off the pavement and onto the beach. Terms: if she's first to touch the jetty, My attempt was forfeit till the next day, It took me two weeks but finally, Grabbed her parka, she could not get away. I held my arms around her from back, She spun in place to face me. Her arms round my waist, her counterattack, Of embracing and kissing thoroughly! Nellie smiled proudly, "You're on the mend!" "You listened and followed, so plain to see." "Wait in my room until midnight, when", "I'll show you a much different side of me." I'm eating more at the family table, Eating robustly of their meat and bread. All the better to build my muscle, But after I nap on Nellie's own bed. I slept dreamlessly, had a nice rest. She woke me later, and told me softly, "I will model for you great-gran's dress!" "Time for me to show, time for you to see." Borrowing her water closet to pee, I take care of urgent business. Then I'm totally flummoxed to see, The ensemble worn by her ancestress! Tied from her waist up to her shoulders, A Depression era whalebone corset. White fishnet hose hung from suspenders, To toes in a way I won't soon forget. Completing her boudoir ensemble, Bracelets and necklace of carnelian. With white gloves and shoes from the dance hall. Mascara'd lashes and lips encarmine. With hair braided down below her waist, She's a vision from a former age, My heart pounding fast behind my chest, But my lower part would not engage. She knew my libido was locked away. She saw the confusion on my face. Nellie asked me softly in dismay, "Do I not please you, love, in this place?" I approached.I held her much closer. "Do you want honesty?" I asked, She looked up, studied me, yearning truth. After a pause, she said, "Yes," at last. I gently said, "Not too long ago," "An awesome girl took my virginity." "Looking very closely like you though," "She captured my eternal loyalty." "Understand, from my heart this is true:" "During those magical times of ours," "Every time I commune with you," "'My God!' I feel, 'You're full of stars!'" "Here I see, Nellie, your other side," "A part I hope to learn more about." "But the last part of me needs a guide." "I'm begging for Nell to coax her out." She whispered, "My heart's yours, forever." I saw in her eyes, those endless stars there. Safe in my arms, she gently shivered, I saw those stars fade, then disappear. In thier place, banked coals I see, Hot, consuming, from the gates of hell. I stood there with curiosity, In front of the legendary Nell. She studied me discerningly, Soon she gave me a cat-like grin. "Well now!" she said, "Here I see." "Final vestiges of a sweet virgin." "I know that this is not what you planned." "Although I had serviced men for gain," "I'm not evil as you understand." "Here just an archetype, in the main." "Each girl has both madonna and whore." "Both are halves of the feminine soul." "Keeping perfect balance in her core." "But your beloved is not quite whole." "Suppressing for an unhealthy length," "My portion, out of desperate shame." "Her heart and mind have an angel's strength." "They believe she must defy my name." "Far beyond the original Nell," "These concepts I know from your Nellie." "She won't attain her full potential," "Unless she blends that angel and me." "I know you're only here for love's sake." "You want to understand, you want to heal." "She needs to recover from that rake." "Who traumatized her, that horrible heel!" "To me, your soul is from the future." "Your empathy for life, off the scale." "You'd never use a girl for pleasure." "Your conscience nigh invulnerable." "I know exactly what you are." "As guns or knives, men think of thier pricks." "Idealist, you're more lethal by far!" "But I can read your inner design specs." "You see your loving like a star drive," "To take your girl where she's never been." "Using your power, we will strive," "To restore her, I won't again be seen." "In order to fuse both our halves." "They need a shaped charge that's very big!" "As you know, an engine like you have" "Can detonate, if we just re-rig." "Here is the first thing I will do:" "Remove the safeties from 'round your heart," "Regulating aggression by you." "Trust me!You won't deliver hurt!" "Next, I want you to show me more trust," "So I can remove all your barriers," "Between love and anger, passion and lust," "The tyranny by the mind that is yours." Removing my clothes, she let them fall. Kneeling down with her knees on the floor. Fingering her clit, stroking my balls, While making me irruminate her. In minutes I felt like a piece of rebar. Things in me weakening, giving way. Soon enough, she came up for air. This is what I heard her say: "Your conscience I see is unselfish," "The magnetic bottle which holds your fuel," "Trust me! You'll not destroy, just ravish," "I'll shut it down, I know you aren't cruel." She licked me everywhere, then made me, Lie down with my back upon the floor. Devoured my shaft, used her teeth gently, Slid a slick finger up my back door. How can I describe the talent, Of the world's most infamous courtesean? My parent and adult parts did relent, The rest her eager automaton. Her mouth slowly releases my cock, Says, "Put your prick in, through my panty!" Then it's her turn to lie back. "Rip it first. Then push it into me!" I made my fingernails part the gauze, My knees between hers, I gain entry. Wanting to press with relentless cause. She holds my hips firm, saying, "Gently!" So aroused, my shaft seared as I sink Into the wettest, hottest, of dames. When I'm buried completely, I think: "Oh my God!She's full of flames!" With her legs clamping around my back, Nell is holding me very tightly. She's not allowing me any slack, And next she's beginning to spank me. I feel the hard slap of her hand, I could swear it will leave a mark. I feel her flower contract and expand, I can swear I could feel the spark. Alternating the pain and pleasure, Approaching, retreating, from the brink. My mind can not take it any more, Can't grip reality, it's lost sync. Nell moves her lips to my ear, then she Bites the lobe, drawing blood, growling low: "Now FUCK the living shit out of me." "Take me hard! Like a wild ANIMAL!" Her arms cushioned by velvet pillows, I grip hands on her fishnet clothed rear, For three minutes through her ripped hose, Pistoning from behind at high gear. No more pleasure need I gently coax. I pinch her aureoles, I slam in hard. Feeling our cores melt down and mix, I roar wordless, she shrieks, "Holy God!" We shiver through an eternal now. We collapse together into a heap. We lift each other to stand somehow. Because the floor is too hard for sleep. Sweating we embrace, kiss, lock gazes, What we learned bonding us in wonder. Nellie's returned!I see in her eyes, All her stars restored, plus something more. To each others' arms, in bed we crawled. I slept deeply until noon to see, Her side of her bed level and cold, Under the lacy white canopy. I found the entire house vacant, Feeling some minutes of dismay. Yet I was suddenly cognizant, Over cereal, it was Sunday. And so after a cold breakfast, I walked down the street to the beach. I saw a jetty I almost walked past, Quinn's presence startled me beyond speech. Wanting to be completely alone, Setting my face to hide my surprize, I bent down to pick a flat stone. He asked, "Some trouble in paradise?" I skipped my stone. "The snake could be me." Explaining my aircraft metaphor, "She's completely stet.Could you see," "Anything I could offer her?" He spent moments in very deep thought, Skipping his own stone into the bay, "Richard, for what it's worth, you ought," "To have some faith, and see it this way:" "Meeting the first time, you charmed her," "With your pure heart and innocence." "Won her back, performing with valor," "A mental leap of wondrous distance." "Extending your metaphorical stand." "Of women as artifacts of flight." "Deep within you are blueprints, a plan," "To jump her mind's airframe faster than light." "Through mountains of data, she can see clear." "You integrate knowledge from any source." "I've never seen her form a new idea." "Though she thinks extremely fast, of course." "She knows our ways, can sing all our songs," "Yet even I knew she is no seer." "But now I see something in her build strong." "Ever since you two have set foot here." "By now you know my daughter well." "She has the old Nell's original grit." "For good reasons, she'd walk into hell." "Only you could drag her out of it." "Prior to church today, she approached me." "Confessing her morning's misgiving." "She's so scared when you finally see," "Her flaws, you won't be so forgiving." "Can you accept her for all she is?" "Here's what I am going to suggest." "Together, you can conquer your fears." "You both should go on a vision quest." "Do you expect us to see anything?" I asked. Quinn replied, "Probably not." "But in the snow if you're not killing" "Each other in a week, that's a start!" Hand on my back, he said, "Let's walk home!" "The women likely returned by now." "Probably thought we went on our own," "Getting ourselves in trouble somehow." A sea-plane dropped us in cold and bleak Far and away in the arctic ice. Nell said if we survive here just one week, The rest of our lives would be paradise. Nellie reached deep in her medicines, Bringing out a dried up white root. She broke it in two with her bare hands, Harder than leather from an old boot. "I write to an old lady from Austrialia," "She calls herself Dorothy," "Knows remedies 'for all that ails ya'," "She first had this when she was a baby.". "Take this now, dear, please eat some," "And then I shall have some too." "It's reputation is very fearsome!" "But no choices remain for us to view," In silence we ate, then we waited. Sitting behind the thick icy wall. It was daylight, under calm blue skies. Leaving the cave, she stood straight and tall. She raised her hands upward and out, And then filled her lungs full of air. She closed her eyes, then began to shout, The sun's disk made a halo in her hair. Her vowels were like seagulls crying, Seals belling consonants in her chant, But I knew of all what she was saying, Since I ate recently of her plant. "Spirit of the Earth, I beseech thee!" "Come hear your disciple's cry," "I need you to rescue my lover and me," "Alone, we will both surely die!" "I call to me, the Old Man Of The Sea," "Who foreigners name the fur seal!" "Tricksters of the waves, come to me!" "Cetaceans, please come north to my appeal!" Silently in my mind's eye, I saw how, The shaft of light her spirit sent, Like a landing beacon she shined now, In the metaphysical firmament. Her voice started taking on resonance, Working skip through a sound soliton. Sensitive skin could feel the air dance, As her song became ever more strong. "Please hear the mayday from your daughter." "Please recognize that within," "My veins flows the blood of a shaman:", "My own father, the Mighty Quinn!" Nellie inhaled one last deep breath, Focused all of her power and might. Revealing at once her innermost self, Having an aura flaring brilliant white. "I pray to the Holy Ones for help!" "Serving the One above none can see," "Poseidon, Michael and Sedna!" "And above them all, the Trinity!" The virtues given to me and lent her, From a root taken from Outback wild, Showed a ruby gem blaze from her center, Revealing to me, she carried our child! I would remember till the day I died, Struck to my core, I fell to my knees. Saw her soul's terrible beauty, cried, Adoring tears for this angel of seas! As fast as she had reached her summit, Her inner light so quickly receded. She was burned out, but she had done it, Spending all her strength while she pleaded. Her eyes fluttered, her face went white, Her stance on the ice floe did sway. At one-fifteen pounds she felt so light, In my arms once she fainted away. I dragged her back to our igloo, We stayed warm between our parka furs. I had an idea to give us my all too, Would I do any lesser for her? Because there remained no more food, I swore my own substance I would give. Mixing fresh water with some of my blood, Making her drink it so that she might live. As I melted snow with my hands, She woke between the covers I made. She saw all at once my dire plans, "Don't!" she whispered, "We have aid." I felt a tremor in our ice wedge, As if people had come by to knock. I walked outside to the frozen edge, Staring outward in utter shock. Beyond anyone's wildest wish, Dolphins jumped from the sea, then waved, With thier flukes to throw us some fish, She smiled weakly in joy, we were saved! The chief of the pod had come calling, And let out a stacatto yell. My mind on the root was translating, He addressed the fourth Eskimo Nell. "Please to excuse the delay!" said him, "We heard your song out in the water." "But we had a very long distance to swim." "Just how's Mighty Quinn, your own father?" "Thank you for coming, great chieftain." She replied with such grave courtesy, "He's very old now, strong as only ten men," "In his prime he was like more than thirty." "He can still throw a lance, hunt a seal." "He governs through wisdom, not with force." "As shaman he has our people's appeal." "He has made me his princess, of course!" "A very good thing," the chief dolphin said. "But what is polluting our oceans?" "Liquid metal kills us so painfully dead, and" "We beach when we taste their foul potions." "Our fault," my lady sadly confessed. "Since too many children are living." "They grow up and then have cubs of thier own," "So our world's reached its limit of giving." "Eat some fish, and grow stronger," "For you and us, it's not too late." "I can also tell with my deep sonar," "You carry a she cub from your mate." The dolphin continued, "The fish are all free." "Eat 'them till you've had your fill." "We'll push you to land out of decency." "But a favor we ask, if you will." "We gave Mighty Quinn our own word," "To protect him and all of his line." "Since you are now here, this can be reheard," "Our price should be repaid at this time." "What did you ask of him?" my love said. "What favor was it he gave you?" "Anything inside my power to grant," "Or my mate's, for the treaty to renew." The chief said, "We have two members," "Far too lowly in standing to mate," "Besides, they are brother and sister," "Having outstanding needs you must sate." When Nellie and I had heard this one, We gripped hands in fear, overawed. Till now it's unknown what her father had done, To earn so much trust from this pod. Her hands balled in anger down at her waist. "You presume very much!" she did shout. "What makes you think that slaking thier lust," "Would be different than doing without?" The creature said, "It is indeed up to you." "For Quinn's sake, we help you this day." "But if the next time you need rescuing too," "We'll ignore you, and go on our way." "This is how our tribes relate, I must say," "For mutual aid, our omegas must mate." "With strangers, since it's the dolphin way," "Think it over, take time, we can wait." It was time to interrupt these wet pests. Holding her tight, in a warming embrace. I told the pod, "Look, she needs some rest," "And cooked fish for feeding her face!" "Give her some time to recover," I said. "Get us driftwood too, for the cold!" "Then give her more time to consider," "Your request we think is overly bold." I carried my love back to our ice house. Lit wood with a flare for a fire bright, She was so tired, she would not rouse, So I broiled and ate some fish that night. I kept the watch till the next dawn, And down her mouth I dribbled fish broth. She finally woke with a stronger yawn, So I crashed like a light bulb turned off. Waking again, feeling nude and cozy, In jacket linings of fur and caribou. My soft yet strong Nellie embracing me, Who was naked, and fully warm too. In the flickering light of the fire, I could so clearly see her emotion. In her dark eyes I saw loving softness, In her face I saw fiercest devotion. "Richard, I'm the happiest woman of all!" Said the lady next to be regnant, "I'm still alive, even comfortable," "The dolphins said, you have made me pregnant." "You've won my heart, you've done all this," "And right now, you are still sixteen." "You deserve so much more than a hero's kiss." "You have all of my eternal esteem." "By the standards of my own nation," "From our vast and snowy wild land," "Resourceful, brave, full of compassion," "I would call you my Inuit man." I wordlessly stared at her, upward. She stared serenely downward at me. Tears of my love leaked from my face, outward, For my darling to so plainly see. From humanity's dawn time was taken, From an eternal moment, our minds meshed. I made slow, tender love with my maiden, We both became one soul, and one flesh. Much later in my life, I now reflect, On what was our communion depending? Simply the forge of true love I detect, Or Australian root of understanding? Thoughts and feelings as close as they can, Afterwards they were never again. But she'll always be my dearest woman, And I'll always be her dearest man. Satiated, we wanted to sleep until noon. Our ordeal had been exhausting. But the dawn arrived just all too soon. With outside a new layer of frosting. Amazing enough, the news was quite good. The dolphins had been very patient. A few of them found some more driftwood. The rest pushed us close to our nation. We finally felt so much better, With renewed strength we could confront. Whether to grant the pod leader, his Omega a taste for human cunt. Nellie and I talked it over. I admit that I had been fussing. I've never been an animal's lover, I'm repulsed. I think it's disgusting! But this was Nellie's first treaty. Between her own people and strangers. Yet growing in her belly was my baby. Could dolphin sex present some dangers? "Richard, I simply can't risk it", she said. "They're stronger over a factor of two." "The act has some chance to kill our child dead," "You may try, if that's what you must do." We had to decide before it was too late, The root in our bloodstreams running thin. If a girl dolphin I must penetrate, Speech was needed, or I wasn't in! "Love, may I think of it this way?" I asked. "They don't look like people in the least." "But sentient creatures with my eyes masked," "With my eyes shut they don't seem like beasts." Nellie walked up to the edge of the ice, Pronouncing her law to the chieftain. Meanwhile, I approached the omega cow, And gently caressed her soft, warm, wet skin. "For the sake of the bond of love and trust". "Continued since eons before Greece." "I, the man, perform the act as I must," "As proof of our good will, of peace." "The pod must push their girl cross the ice." "To hide from all eyes," I requested. "My kind will view this, to be a vice." "I really don't want to be arrested." So I approached Nellie first, To beg for any last minute ideas. Of possible disasters one was the worst, Impotence being the chief of my fears. The shaman princess, reached in her bag, With her mind in the proper perspective. She fed to me a small little blue pill, Handed me a latex contraceptive. The pod pushed across the now terrified cow, Who slid into my hand-built igloo, As I stroked her, she said, "I've not mated." "Neither humans nor our people too." I told her, "You're far more massive," "You could crush me to paste if you dare," "So when I'm in you please be passive," "To show me just how much you care." The vasodilator took effect without fail, And my penis rose to the occasion. The condom went on my erection, Her vulva was under her tail. Expecting that she would be slimey, I pushed three fingers in now. Her muscles were warm, I thought, "Blimey!" "She's so soft... and doesn't smell foul!" My cock was steel hard, standing ready. My guest quivered under my roof. From her side I entered, steadily, Into her... the moment of truth! I stayed much more still than a whisper. As she promised, she moved nowhere here. Her vagina then fluttered around me, I'm unsure if in pleasure, or fear. On her skin I smelt sweet salt ocean, I felt ultrasonics she sent, I could feel all of her strange emotions, As I pushed to my balls, in I went. The dolphin girl was gently swaying, Like the kelp that grew in the sea. I couldn't pull out, where I was laying, Since her insides were now grabbing me. Now was my time to do nothing, The floor felt like a hard icy bench. It seemed she was holding my member, In her powerful muscles, gently clenched. Soon my mind approached a chasm, She reached her peak about the same time. My whole body then quaked in orgasm, She caressed me with echoes down my spine. Somehow the root of understanding, Made me see with eyes shut in shocked surprise, A girl I met when I was dreaming A golden-haired mermaid having green eyes. It took no more effort than a wish To send out from my mind's point of view, Crying from ecstacy and anguish "Amalthea, can this really be you?" She could feel my entire explosion, Detonate like a nuke in my latex device. She could feel my cock twitch in fast motion, "Richard!" she sent back, "This feels very nice!" Her insides quit rippling over my shaft, A fact for which I felt relief. A dolphin climax seems so very fast, But it was powerful beyond belief. We rested for moments, at right angles, I moved, and then I withdrew. I checked myself, and seemed unmangled, Last she said to me, "Go with love! Thank you!". Before I took the condom off me, Out the shelter with my legs and arms. I first pushed her backwards to safety. Returned her to family, with no harms. I cleaned myself up, and then I dressed. I sobbed into my sweetheart's shoulder. The pod leader said he was very impressed. For leagues dolphins heard us all over. "You understand what this cost him?" Nellie sadly asked of the chief. "Our treaty my mate did manage to win," "His courage is beyond belief!" "Let my cub and yours stand for witness," "So long as they both have descendants." "To be entwined forever, our nations." "In love and in mutual dependence!" "Never again will you test us," "We've done enough for you this time.". "While Man does possess some small hubris," "We indulged yours when you crossed the line!". "Let it be so," said the dolphin bull. "We are humbled by your deed." "You will protect us during your rule." "My line will listen anytime yours needs." She and I patted the male on its hide, with nothing else needed to say, Some hundreds congregated on the same side, And pushed our ice floe on its way. Serenely we sat in our shelter, Although we had made it our home. Nellie now had to get prenatal care, And we wearied of being alone. It took lots more time to venture out here, Than the duration of our return journey. Since at sunset came by a cutter, We found out was called by Sarri's attorney. We waved, we shouted, we jumped up and down. The moment the ship came in sight, Of dolphins, there were none left to be found, The whole pod had taken quick flight. A helicopter then flew out our way, Extending down a short rope ladder. Its crew whisked us fast to their sickbay. The captain waiting, and my darling's father. "DADDY!!!" my sweet Nellie shouted. Delight on her face plain as day. "You came for us!I never doubted!" "You have a grandchild on the way!" I took the man aside and explained, The short version of our travail. Especially the help we had gained, It made for a fascinating tale. I lowered my voice and I told him. "Mister Quinn, I now know the secret." "Why rushes to our aid, the dolphin." "Though I had a tough time, no regret." Wordlessly, from the back of his hair, He removed a jade whale on a chain. He put it on my neck for me to wear, I saw in his eyes ancient pain. Rumbled his voice, "Pride of Deadeye," "You look like the son I almost had." "I am so sorry I set your bar high." "If you want, you can call me Dad." Realizing why to him Nellie was loving. I put arms round his waist and held fast. He kept a front so cold and forbidding. Like the Arctic ice, till you got past. I spun half a circle in place, My love's throne a medical carriage. Kneeling, said gazing up at her face, "Will you give me your hand in marriage?" Nellie jumped off from her gurney, Pulling me upward with her hand. "With you, I'll begin my life's journey," She said, "Now, I just want you to stand." "Before the captain, hear my answer," "These waters keep First Nation laws," "So YES, I say to you, FOREVER!" In the sickbay, the crew gave applause. Our embrace was a small slice of heaven, She looked at me, and smiled so sweetly. Though the clock said a quarter till seven, When our lips met, time stopped completely. Done with adventure, home we seeked, Returned by daybreak to Denali. Wanting to rest for an entire week, Too exhausted for sexuality. I brought her again to my parents. To them things went far more properly. Treating me with far more common sense, Scheduling a church ceremony. They lent to Nellie my bedroom. At my own home, I felt like a grouch. Purity of boy and girl assumed, They assigned me to sleep on the couch! Soon enough, came the magic day. On the lawn, a native choir did sing. After Quinn gave his daughter away. We put on each other an ivory ring. Guests threw seeds at us, it made a mess. We departed from them in a mock flight. To a five-star suite at the Hotel Princess, We stayed there for our wedding night. Now, Nell Number Five is in grade school, Three year old Almathea loves to play. I grin at baby Junior like a fool, My wife tells me little Quinn's on his way! Nellie and I found our lives' true meaning. Stranded in the seas of Nunavuut. Therefore on our rings was an engraving. "Understand," as it was love's true root. Finis ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ This story was written as an adult fantasy.
