The very first time he said, "Let's make love,"
instead of his customary, collegiate "Let's get naked":
you felt as if the very stars, on vastly high above
and beyond this earth drew near to declare that Love sacred;
and the two of you---lovers, not just boyfriends,
regardless of what every old prude or hater pretends.
At college, you became part of the Poetry
that presents and celebrates Homosexuality.
