apollo & hycanthius
a face so pale and washed against the
drowning hyacinth field,
taunting the rain-soaked earth with
spilled ambrosia and
salty teardrops.
the Sun burnt his
Muse in starry passion.
payment for sunrise lyre lessons
and olive branch kisses.
debt paid with whistling wind
and a broken discus.
a crown so bright it blinded
hyacinthus' judgement.
an adoration so gentle it blinded
apollo's sense.
