Author’s Note: I have no real idea where this was first published. Sorry, dudes. I wrote it a few years back. It caused quite a stir at My Sucky Valentine when Violet Blue read it. Ask me about the story’s race and class politics!!!! Really!! I dare ya!!!!!

Anyway. Here it is.

Panty Trick

by Thomas S. Roche

Blake jimmied the bedroom window with a rusty crowbar he found on the side of the house under the Chevy Nova up on blocks. His favorite brand of white trash: Those who thoughtfully provided their own burglary tools.

He crawled through the window and found himself in the bedroom. It was a typical low-rent SoCal suburban house — crappy shag carpeting that looked like it hadn’t been replaced since the seventies, a color that fell somewhere between shit, blood and pumpkins. The double bed had no frame; it sat on its box spring with the floral print sheets tangled like serpents fucking. Blake checked "under the bed" off his mental list, tossed his empty gym bag onto the bed to fuck with the snakes, and went for the closet.
