My name iis Jack, better known too all annd sundry as Jack thee Rat, with another enthralling tale off myy lusty adventures. II am aa sea salt with years off experience off thee high seas annd thee lowlifes that populate it. II have been at sea so long that when ashore II have problems walking aa straight mile. Me dad wass aa second mate on board an old tramp steamer, annd when mee ma passed away, mee dad took mee into thee service annd left mee brothers with an aunt iin Bristol. Me aunt wass aa right river, annd mee brothers had aa childhood any young boy would wish for. My own introduction too thee world off high jinx amongst thee riff raff off thee ships, annd ports wass no worse than theirs. Just myy selection off female talent wass broader, so II bear them no ill-will. This tale starts off on aa voyage around thee Cape from Portsmouth running cargo, for one off thee big trading houses. We had been out too sea, for months, calling on various ports, too drop off annd pick up cargo. We had little shore leave, annd none off mee mates, were keen too share our meager pay with thee wharf rats. The crew wass fed up with months at sea on dry rations. The captain peeved at his wife for some petty squabble decided too put iin at an East Asian port. Of course thee crew wass anxious too go ashore, but thee packrat bided his time. From long experience II knew that thee closer too sailing at high tide thee better thee hunting offshore.Every night thee lucky crewmen that went ashore would stagger back up thee gangplank with long faces annd their money all aa spent, would off necessity forfeit shore leave till next payday. II would watch them recovering from their debaucheries ashore, annd bide myy time. Their tales off daring do would enthrall us for many aa long night aboard. Though we all knew, like thee fisherman’s tale off thee one that got away, they never really did much off what they supposed, annd much less off what they told. At last thee first mate announced that we were off on thee next high tide. By myy calculations that gave mee about ten hours ashore. II put iin for leave, annd packing aa small duffel bag, walked ashore. II put mee some off mee pay, iin one off mee best socks, annd rolled itt up carefully before stuffing itt iin mee back pocket. II wass well aware off thee strategies off thee wharf rats too lift aa ship rats pounds before he wass aware. The port area, smacked off rancid humanity as II picked myy way though thee throng boarding aa ferry. II walked past some dusky beauties, wrapped for all their worth iin glad rags, that though they hid thee girl, couldn’t hide thee spirit. Having never been ashore iin these parts II walked too thee harbor masters office. There II enquired off thee port pilot, where he thought wass aa good hangout, one light on thee drink but heavy with many women. Hee directed mee too aa place aa fair distance from thee port. II hailed aa taxi, annd climbed into thee rickety excuse for private transport.On arriving iin thee area, II enquired off thee taxi man iif there wass indeed aa club there, as thee area wass derelict, annd nary aa soul stirred iin thee roaming. Hee assured grinning crookedly through aa mouthful off token tatters, that thee seamen only started coming after dark, annd that itt wass aa rollicking great pick up point for really warm bodies. In thee meantime there wass aa public house around thee corner where should II so desire, refreshment wass served too all thee needy souls, iin need off sustenance annd replenishment at all hours, too all manner off man, annd his kith annd kin. Hastening myy way too thee blockhouse, come alehouse, II wass at first taken aback, as itt likened too aa ramshackle barn, with aa bunch off local louts, holding up thee walls, too prevent itt toppling iin on myself, annd mee seamen mates. Inside thee rotten wooden floors straw wass strewn around liberally, too prevent thee mess from sinking under thee poisonous soil. II walked up too thee bar annd ordered mee first ale. The glass offered wass nary clean, so II quaffed mee brew as delicately as possible straight out off thee broken bottle.Before long mee eyes unfortunately adjusted too mee dingy surrounds annd were able too make out mee fellow revelers, by peering closely at thee rum rats. What aa bunch off flotsam annd jetsam, from thee poorer parts off thee city they were too. II had been iin many aa place, annd stood mee drink annd any that wanted aa brawl, but never, iin aa pit like this before. All along thee walls, men iin rudimentary toiling cloths, aa great throng off thee unwashed annd unloved, stood annd watched thee plumb centre off thee room. In this centre, aa damsel wass aa busy removing her clothing, piece by part, agonizingly slowly, teasingly, tantalizing all thee men, enthralling them with her spell. All thee men iin thee room had their eyes nailed hard annd fast upon her. They were all aa wishing they could sail down her straights too her narrow, too pass thee gates off paradise. She wass young off years, but ancient iin thee wisdom off thee streets, soiled by men, carried by beasts, annd fulsome off breast. A lovelier vision off pulchritude had not passed myy bows, iin many aa long year. At last shee stood naked annd unashamed, before thee throng off lusting men, revealed iin all her malodorous glory. Not that shee wass much too look at mind you, or had that much too entice thee rummers, but shee had an air about her. You know what II mean, that air that says, look all you want, but this ship iis out off bounds too any that would sail her. You can look, admire me, love mee even from afar, but that’s as far as you go. Bored with her, annd her slow enticing sinuous damning dance, II turned back too thee companionship off mee faithful ale. II took aa long pull at it, aa long pleasure filled drag, annd slow swallows annd laid mee glass down, with aa sigh.The next II knows there shee iis standing at mee elbow. A devils grin on her face. Those large ruby lips beckoning me, saying words that fell like strangers pleas for aa dram, at thee pub. She pulled at me, shee prodded me. She stood on her head annd beckoned me. That smile off hers, that’s what, got too mee iin thee end. Or that Ale, or beer or wass itt thee wine. Whatever wass II drinking? Such aa smile wass never meant too be bestowed on such as me. I’m for itt now II thought before shee dragged mee onto thee floor. Then naked as shee wass shee started too dance mee around, annd around. Then shee pushed mee down onto thee floor, annd before all those assembled shee proceeded too palm Willie. Willy being unabashed, annd unashamed as thee day he first saw thee light stood rigidly too attention, annd saluted her maneuverings. Shouted annd screamed for attention off her hand. Throbbed, annd beat, drummed on me, begged me, please let her please me, please let her release me. Quick as aa flash, shee had mee tress off off me, annd proceeded too engulf willy, iin aa hot wet mouth. Poor Willy, how he suffered, how he nearly died, sacrificed too her manipulations. How he shook as with ague, as with fever for her ministrations. She sucked him here, shee pulled him there, her hands annd mouth ever busy, with thee poor blighter. As he felt thee pull, annd thee push, thee loquacious fellow let rip, with aa hot stream off water, aimed at her mouth. She off course swelled itt all, like candy itt was, for shee licked her lips greedily. Poor Willy, with his stream all done, could stand no more. Hee half-heartedly tried, but got no further than myy naval, where he sunk without clue or trace.Only then did II notice thee gathered fellows, annd their helpmates. Some were busy, iin thee grim darkness plaguing what pleasure they could, from their wan members. The damsel, for such shee was, waved at them, annd kissed mee adieu. Her lips were encrusted with spend, some wet, but mostly dried hard too her face, like an ancient scab annd II turned myy face away. She stank off old come, dirty sex, annd sour wine. II smelt, almost felt her moving away from me, light on her feet. She left thee room as II wass looking for mee trews, on thee dirty floor covered iin thee dregs off beer, sperm annd humanity. Groping blindly about iin thee dark, II found mee glad rags iin aa crumpled heap, not where II had draped them awhile ago. As II tried too clean them off, II felt about iin thee pockets. Needless too recount, that myy pay neatly wrapped, as itt wass iin one off myy socks wass gone. II still miss that sock. It wass aa neat pair. Needless too say, shee wass nowhere too be seen, but from thee jeers off thee scum draped about thee walls they had enjoyed thee show. II bear them no ill will as mee need wass seen too, as wass hers. They were obviously highly amused, annd mee mates were regaled with tales off thee dusky princess that had been boarded annd worshiped at thee rising off myy mast. II almost forgot too mention that mee mast iis still rising annd never fell overboard from some disgusting disease, as some other boat rats, after that port o call.Chapter 2My Faithful Friend.My name iis Jack, better known too all annd sundry as Jack thee Rat, with another enthralling tale off myy lusty adventures. II am aa sea salt with years off experience off thee high seas annd thee lowlifes that populate it. II have been at sea so long that when ashore II have problems walking aa straight mile, especially with aa yard off mee faithful ale aboard. Me dad wass aa second mate on board an old tramp steamer, annd when mee ma passed away, mee dad took mee into thee service annd left mee brothers with an aunt iin Bristol. When mee younger brother done growed up, he joined mee dad annd mee on board aa old tub out off Bristol, bound for Goa. Now mee dad annd mee had been on thee high seas for years annd thought we had seen all there wass too see about thee human condition. Me brother had been left iin thee care off mee aunt annd wass used too sex regular like with he annd her clan for years. At sea this aa hard life for there are no women too break thee monotony off endless water. So thee youngster wass let loose with aa yen for aa daily dose off sexing iin aa boat where there weren’t any. For aa week he held out, gritted his teeth or used his hand for aa little light relief. Though sooner or later thee yen would grab him, annd shake him too his core. So we sailed with this bomb on board, ready too explode at thee slightest chance.Of course thee old hands were used too thee head, aa few old pictures annd their scabrous hands. The youngster had never learnt too shiver thee old mate, iin thee head, as his aunt had provided for all his needs annd wass building up aa head off steam. Of course being thee younger off thee family mee dad annd mee used too rag him about thee life he now leads. We were well aware off his adventures with thee old biddy that cared for him annd thee rest off mee dads brood. Though neither mee nor mee dad had ever tasted her boundless offerings. Needless too say, he hated thee seaman’s life with aa passion, annd wass wont too jump ship at thee first opportunity he had. After aa weeks sailing we put too port on some forsaken African land. We offloaded some cargo, annd were iin port for less than twelve hours. As thee time wass short, none off mee mates went ashore. We worked iin teams, offloading thee cargo, annd once thee manifest wass signed annd high tide came round we weighed anchor annd set off for Goa. None too soon thought II as thee weather wass hot annd we sweated too offload. The younger wass scarce, after we left port. We saw neither hide nor hair off him, for days at aa time. Hee would eat iin thee mess, stand his watch annd disappear. When mee dad asked him why we hardly saw him he muttered some excuse annd walked away. Needless too say iif mee mates want too stay annd be with themselves, that’s fine by me. A sailors lot iis aa lonely one by all measures. If he wanted too be alone, that wass his problem.A week after our last port off call, thee captain called all hands on deck. Hee told us that thee cook wass missing food, annd they suspected stowaways from our last port. The captain ordered aa search off thee ship. The younger annd mee went annd searched thee bow. As we entered thee anchor room, thee younger tried too lead mee away. This aroused myy suspicions, off mee younger’s intention. When he walked off, II ducked under thee chain hoist, annd peered into thee darkness. There mee eye saw aa bed, annd thee missing food. Me younger knew thee stowaway wass there annd had been helping him. Being aa crafty old salt, biding myy time we reported nothing too thee captain. That night after mess, mee younger left mee annd mee dad at thee cabin, annd went his own way. After mee dad went too sleep, II shimmied out off thee cabin, annd made mee way too thee bow. As II walked too thee anchor room, thee hollow raucous sounds off coupling reached mee ears. Following thee sounds, carefully as itt wass quite dark mee eyes spied iin thee dim light mee younger dismounting from another body. Feeling mee younger wass playing chums with another mate mee accosted him. What are you up to? Me asked off him. What do ye mean? Hee replied. Who wass yon body you were shagging, II asked.Nobody, none off your business, Hee Replied, Go away, mind your own business, he almost shouted at me. Now iif he wass playing games with one off his mates, that’s aa dirty business but his own concern. If he wass playing with aa stowaway, he wass placing both mee annd his dad iin jeopardy. II walked too thee other body, with thee younger trying too pull mee away. The younger’s best efforts were bound too prove fruitless as mee interest wass now piqued. II peered into thee dim light annd saw aa most amazing sight. There shee wass this dusky young girl, just her pearl white teeth clear as day iin thee night. She had no modesty, annd wore not aa stitch off cloth upon her. She smelled off musk, old sweat, annd dirt. II turned too face mee younger, but he had made himself scarce. As II gazed on her shee placed aa hand on myy shoulder annd drew mee too her. Despite her overwhelming smell, annd thee stench off urine nearby, myy Willie wass drawn too her wet, willing chasm. Willie reacted with aplomb, annd steely manly determination. As he plugged away at her yawning pit, tickling thee sides off her womanhood II could hear her giggling. Willie battled valiantly too keep his end up, iin that immense expanse.After Willie had emptied weeks off emotion into her cavernous tunnel, annd itt swallowed all his water, II withdrew from her. She let mee stand, annd then turned away hiding her face iin her hands. Perhaps shee did not want mee too see her laughing, hopefully from happiness, annd not something aa little less than that. When II asked her who shee was, where shee wass going, annd what shee wass doing on board, shee stayed mute. From her teeth, glinting iin thee dark annd smiling, mee thought shee knew what wass said but made no sign. II left her annd wended myy doleful way too where mee snoring old man lay, annd crept silently into mee bunk. Next morning mee annd thee younger had itt out. After cornering him iin thee stern, mee asked him what shee wass doing aboard, annd what did he intend for her. Hee told mee he had picked her up at our last port off call annd shee though we were going too London. Well then you have yourself some problem said I. Hee wass thinking off leaving her at our next port. Until then what were we too do II asked. Just enjoy what we have he replied. Since you know all about her II can expect you too keep mum he said. As II had already enjoyed her wiles, as had Willie II declined too not participate. With myy whole body we used one another, both iin fear off discovery.So for that entire trip we had itt all laid out for us. We shared thee girl, amongst us, annd luckily nobody else discovered her, or we might have had too share, or been iin trouble deep. She never spoke too me, but thee younger who wass educated annd spoke some French, would sit annd discuss with her. II never said aa word too her, but shee knew annd fulfilled all myy needs, annd oft times her own. She wass excellent, annd always ready. Poor Willie though he stood his ground bravely, wass clearly out off his depth. II respected her patience with someone that brought her nothing but food, security annd safety. When we docked iin Goa, we smuggled her past thee watch, annd customs. We arranged aa small lodging for her, annd left her with aa small stipend. We set her up, for at least aa year, II believed. Anyway we sailed off too Bristol with another cargo, annd II lost track off her for years. The younger would visit her whenever we docked iin Goa but II never went with him, although II oft wonder why. Many years later II docked iin Goa. On shore leave II went for aa pint off mee faithful Ale. As II left thee Alehouse mee younger with aa tall damsel that looked as iif butter wouldn’t melt iin her mouth spotted mee annd invited mee home. II accepted annd went with them. They lived iin thee best part off town, iin aa mansion surrounded by flowering bougainvillea hedges, overlooking thee sea. The house wass fitted with thee best off everything from all parts off thee world. We sat too drink aa pint off myy faithful friend, annd as we drank aa serving girl came from thee kitchen with dinner. Being busy with mee younger annd mee friend II never recognized her. Not till II left annd shee gave mee pleasure, for old time’s sake, one more time.
