Don't be my Valentine
Alrighty, here it is. My anti-Valentine poem. I promise not to go on a rant about "hallmark holidays" and such, since I've already visited that. But I will say that I despise what's become of this holiday, and the rabid manipulation of emotions and obligation placed on spouses and significant others (especially men) in the name of this holiday. It's much the same as Christmas: Show your love - give me a present. Guys, I'm on your side.
And now....
High Coup

Dumb hetero girls
Pussywhip their nice boyfriends
On Valentine’s Day
Buy me some flowers
Or I’ll hold it against you
The rest of the year
What if he’s decent
Two-four-seven, three-six-five?
It doesn’t matter
Get used to it, boys
This is the way it will be
The rest of your lives.
