The cold shoulder
In the dream I was a huntress
mating with Orion--
muscled and fleshed--
his tunic torn in passion
it was below zero
that Vermont night
and I giggled, finished,
laying naked in the snow
and feeling no cold
as he slumped, worn,
I cradled him
but he dissipated, belt first
(he never took it off)
Betelgeuse was the last to go.
I clung to that cold shoulder
and he winked at me--
winked with all eight starsâ
and faded into night

First the moon now the stars is there a term for this type of sexual preference? Cosmosexual? Celestialphile?
Astro-erotica?
Nice juicy stuff you're writing.
