the quality of mercy

in school that day,
the two high-school boys, one a scrawny sensitive scholar
and the other a big strapping jock,
observed living hydra under the microscope that they
shared as lab partners in biology class,
and, since the jock needed extra help,
he went over to the scholar's house
that night so that they could study together.
one thing led another,
and of course the scrawny sensitive scholar
owned his own microscope, and, as it
got later in the evening,
and as the scholar's parents were away
for several days
visiting long-lost relatives,
it was suggested by the jock that the
scholar, and himself,
look at their own sperm under the microscope,
and so they jerked off together,
and then compared their
sperm under the microscope.
the jock's sperm just seemed,
well, more robust.
and the scholar's sperm seemed
more, well, laid-back and kinda lazy,
perhaps even introspective.
the two high-school boys
chuckled as they made comparisons.
"but didn't you feel weird jerking off
with me?" asked the jock.
for, in fact, they had
jerked themselves off while
observing each other do that
and they were both a bit surprised
to find out that the scholar's dick
was quite a bit bigger than
the jock's dick,
and,
the observation of their comparative dick sizes, made
by the jock himself and pointed out
quite loudly, too, caused both boys,
the jock and the scholar,
to chuckle
quite nervously, but in a friendly
kind of way.
"jeez," said the jock. "i'm not gonna
say i'm small, but, damn, man, you're downright huge."
"it is curious how that turned out, isn't
it?" said the scrawny little scholar,
with uncharacteristic diplomacy,
for, he liked the jock, and didn't
want to say anything to hurt his
feelings.
and now, while comparing their sperm samples,
the scholar said he didn't feel
exactly "weird" jerking off
with the jock, just kind
of, well, "curious, in
a scientific kind of way."
then, the two high-school boys,
the scrawny sensitive scholar,
and the big strapping jock,
stared at each other
as if observing
entirely different species of
human being, marvelling at how
each could be so big in certain
ways, but not in others,
and, when
they took off
all their clothes (for
further comparison), and climbed into the
scholar's bed together,
the jock inserted
his smaller, but quietly adequate
dick into the
scholar's tight pink
little asshole, shoved it around
in there for just a couple seconds,
that's all it took,
the explosiveness
of their subsequent
orgasms, wet and cum-gushy and
full of gasps and groans and gutteral,
almost chimp-like vocalizations,
did nothing
to solve certain mysteries,
but left
very little doubt
about others.
