Skipping Valentines

No to Valentine's Day!

If there's a day I'd like to skip

and witness it no more,

it is the fourteenth day of Feb

which gives me quite a snore.

I hate the roses everywhere

and couples wearing red.

All lovers should break up at once

and not make love in bed.

 

 

I wish to sue the TV shows

that air out kissing scenes.

And lovestruck poets should be hanged

along with crazy teens.

There shouldn't be a single song

with lame romantic rhymes.

And dating should be labeled as

the greatest of all crimes.

 

 

Whoever dared invent this crap

deserves a room in hell.

Those people who participate

should be with him as well.

See, it's not fair that they rejoice

and grief is all that's mine.

'Cause this event reminds me of

my long-lost valentine.

Author's Note

Sorry for the vulgar word "crap". I want to use "nonsense" but it has two syllables. ;)

Love your sense of humor and edgy sense of despise ;)

This was absolutely delightful. I loved it all but this stanza sung to me:

I wish to sue the TV shows

that air out kissing scenes.

And lovestruck poets should be hanged
along with crazy teens.
There shouldn't be a single song
with lame romantic rhymes.
And dating should be labeled as
the greatest of all crimes.
