For: Love or Bust Poetry Contest

I’d rather lead a wagon train over Donner Pass in the heart of cold winter than take a chance on cherubic Cupid’s insipid arrow; does X really mark the spot, and is the promise of true love such a treasure? A lifetime of love letters burns easy in the fires of infidelity, and the discovery of trickery will cause a lass to never again say it’s love or bust!
