Queer Writing for a Queer World
Author: David Heulfryn
//As the battle enraged around them, Guards belonging to Salidar, dressed in a black leather uniform, engaged Grim and the gladiators as the people ran the other way. Neither side looked like they were winning until three, large, grey forms stepped out of the alleyways. Elroks had come to join the battle as well.
//Jonnie and Albert travel to Berlin where they are met by the efficient German. Albert is masquerading as Lord Penton’s valet and is made to eat with the other servants, who do not take kindly to him. Jonnie goes out one evening but come home pissed. But he has gathered the information he needed about the German military machine.
//Jamie is a 28-year-old musician from Edinburgh. He’s tired of groupies and one-night stands and is looking for something more serious. He thinks his best feature is his balls, his weighty balls that slap against the arse of whoever he’s fucking. I like his balls, his dick and his pubes. It’s great to see some pubes on TV.

Remember, remember the fifth of November,
Gunpowder treason and plot.
We see no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!
Guy Fawkes, guy, t’was his intent
To blow up king and parliament.
Three score barrels were laid below
To prove old England’s overthrow.
By god’s mercy he was catch’d
With a darkened lantern and burning match.
So, holler boys, holler boys, Let the bells ring.
Holler boys, holler boys, God save the king.
And what shall we do with him?
Burn him!
It’s that time of year again when we Brits (and others) celebrate Bonfire night (also called Guy Fawkes Night). The above is a nursery rhyme that we used to sing to our children, but nowadays we only say the first line (it does end quite grim).
I have some vivid memories of standing in front of a furnace of a bonfire in the damp cold night air, eating either a toffee apple (an actual apple on a stick, covered in brittle toffee) or bonfire toffee (toffee so brittle it could break teeth and dislodge fillings). We would also play with sparklers, making patterns in the air, and throwing bangers on the ground to startle people.
These days it’s now a traditional celebration and the gruesome origins are glossed over. But of any of you intend to celebrate with us today, remember to play safe.
//The battle rages as two groups of fighters battle in the streets, one of the men fighting below them was immediately recognizable to Styx. A bola left the man’s hands and wrapped around one of his opponents, confirming without a doubt that it was Dogo. He was in trouble and Styx goes to help him and the other gladiators.
//Sebastian and Gerald arrive at the manor and give Albert the news he had predicted, he was to be an important part of the war effort helping our SIS and their agents. They also give Jonnie and Albert a mission to go to Germany.
//Josh was curious to find out what it was like to get a blowjob. They arranged to meet at the video store located outside of town behind the truck stop where they would rent one of the private party rooms.
//Salidar’s eyes were drawn to one particular pillar, the largest and most infamous; it was known as the pillar of Ibrix. As far as Salidar was concerned, the bigger the pillar the bigger the demon and the better his chances of destroying Neredos with it.
//Albert amazes everyone with his night flying navigation skills. And back at the manor, Albert recounts some interesting times at the school, like being seduced by a junior. On his sixteenth birthday, Albert gets a special present from Jonnie, and his father wants to tell Albert about his mother.
//Time for a serious moment.
I came across this article on the BBC website about Sam Thompson, a man who was raped. Male rape is still woefully under-reported – and it’s not just a gay phenomenon. Please take some time to read this article about what happened and what he has done to turn this experience into something positive.
