Author's Note: I don't know why, but this poem decided to write itself. I've been avoiding the gay romance theme for a while now, so I decided to give it a spin. I hope that y'all like it. ^_^

~ "The Adonis" ~

The rust and dust of his bearded crust

Are merely all that I lust.

His husky faculties prickle and trickle

The sweat of my forbidden trust.

With a declaration of my dying must.

Each of them dazzle and frazzle

The framed brow of my ostracized shadow.

For a while, it loomed over the stretching walls

Of my lover's navy blue castle

In a haze of my heart's pulsating baffle.

Now, it tries my man from a glance,

And borrows our sliding hands for a slow but steady dance.

...The Adonis lights a candle to our budding romance.
