Dilation in Blue


Sometimes, it is that simple.
Sometimes, you say the right thing
at the right time
and before you know it, the boy
who was scared to speak up
has transformed
into a nineteen-year-old man
who is taking all his clothes off before
his judgment and inhibition
send in the memories.
And he’s over
you
on one bed,
you’re both naked,
and suddenly the small, almost inaudible
​pop
of his
lips
as they separate
and he takes a nervous
but determined
breath
is the most erotic thing you’ve ever heard. 

Matt Brister is a recent graduate of the Creative Writing program at Western Washington University, and lives near the Bellingham Bay in the same college town. They love games and car drives in the rain with music draining their ability to hear. At last check, they were found still asleep with an empty carton of soda sideways on the floor next to them, Yuri!!! on Ice playing on repeat on the TV.
