You could consider the allegorical homosexuality pervading the early works of Robert Frost. Bear in mind that very few people would agree it's there though, Robert Frost's something of an untouchable icon in the USA.

You probably know The Road Not Taken, you might read Acquainted With The Night, I reckon The Tuft Of Flowers is along the same lines.
