Boy, be boy, tonight
untitled, from POSTER BOY. Blake Sterling. 2025.
to say boy
and mean, here is your permission.
boy, be boy, tonight.
boy, lay in golden light
breathing deeply
whispering forgive me, forgive me.
remember, he whispered this not to a lover but to his affair.
but david, baby, all he requested was for his boy,
you, his boy, be boy, tonight.
there is no other name,
he has no lovers. only boys to permit.
and isn’t it a funny thing or maybe a sad truth
how desire and romance and obsession motivates his every day.
