Venus and Adonis

1593
Shakespeare
Venus and Adonis
D

Early poem by WS, with a classical setting.  And I just don't care.  Adonis is some prude who'd rather go hunting than shag a goddess, and then I'm supposed to feel bad for overly aggressive Venus when Adonis dies.  That said, some of the adjectives are nice.
