The Book of Hours by devo (R-ish)

Fandom:  Highlander
Pairing:  Duncan/Methos
Author on LJ[personal profile] devohoneybee
Author Website:  Through the Gateway
Why this must be read:   Devo is the true poet laureate of the Highlander fandom.  Her gift is subtle, sexy, pithy, funny and poignant.  She takes words and chooses them so carefully, setting them in an order and with a pace that steals your breath and your heart.  Yes, it's poetry.  And yes, it must be read.

The first time I felt you --
in your Paris apartment, with its
collection of toys,
(where do you shop, Old Man, Immortals-R-Us?)
I knew, though neither Connor nor
Darius had taught me how,
my life was about to spin on an edge
sharper than any sword.

The Book of Hours, ...a poetic journey
