Beginning of The Gay Science

Come on, Straight Boy by Jee Leong Koh

Come on, straight boy, and make gay love with me.
One day of loving will not make you queer,
if queer is what you will not bend to be.
Loving men is but a change of gears.

Why settle for a girl, an undulating
waterbed, and stress leaks pinched too late?
Why with an oven she loves regulating,
you stick your tray of cookies in, and wait?

Men love themselves when they love other men.
Loving themselves, they know well how to give
each other head, maneuver two or ten
round the bend of straightforward relief.

What have you got to lose? Leap, acrobat!
You can still fall back on pussy-cat.

Pederasty, by Proust

If I had money from a boundless mint
and sinew enough in hands, lips, loins,
I’d shun the vanity of politics and print,
and leave—tomorrow? No, tonight!—for lawns
luminous with artificial green
(without the rustic flaws of frost and vermin),
where I’d forever be sleeping with one
warm child or other: François? Firmin? . . .
For what is manly mockery to me?
Let Sodom’s apples burn, acre by acre,
I’d savor still the sweat of those sweet limbs!
Beneath a solar gold, a lunar nacre,
I’d… languish (an ars moriendi of my own),
deaf to the knell of dreary Decency!

Amusing, but I wouldn't call this a literary achievement.

Literally the beat movement

All poetry is gay my man

Everything by Frank O'Hara

Everything by Oscar Wilde

Catullus
Martial

This is why homosexuals are generally shallow.

>explicitly homosexual
>in other words explicitly sexual

Everything revolves around sex with you people. You're just perverts. Plain and simple.

just about everything ever written by David Malouf.

Samuel R Delany too.

C.P. Cavafy. Started reading a collection of his poems and ended up bored of the endless descriptions of dude's bodies.

Oscar Wilde was gay?!

Shakespeare's sonnets.

fpbp

Not at all. Cavafy is much more than that and deserves to be more widely read. His is a sober nostalgia, artfully condensed wordplay and his own brand of Greek.

I'm disappointed.

Sappho

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straton_of_Sardis

With a girl there’s no sphincter, no simple kiss
No natural scent of skin,
Nor that sweet dirty talk nor
The frank expression, and an instructed girl is worse.
They’re all cold from behind. But the larger problem is this—
There is nowhere to put your wandering hand.

How the fuck has nobody mentioned Rimjaub?

So women in those days hadn't evolved assholes, tits and mouths yet?

WAT

John Henry Mackay

Okay then. What's some implicitly homosexual poetry?

There it is, every thread, some inane child posts this "my diary desu" meme. I bet you don't even keep one, you pathetic whelp. Do you think you are funny, with your diary memes? All you are doing is wasting everyone's time. Fuck off to /pol/ or /v/, you're not welcome on a serious discussion forum.
