Valentine's Day - Ugggh

Valentine’s Day: The annual sabbath of pacifists, exhibitionists, and abiders, conflated into a single wilting of wills, destined to the jaws of a shredder, or landfill, blocking the visibility and scent of sustenance for buzzards and other parasitic organisms, designed to sustain the ecological balance of decay, when if forgotten, will leave one in a similar state of graces with the non-recipient of manufactured gestures. So don’t forget the impassioned poetry stenciled across a stock photo of strangers, or the waxy bister of formed chocolates, or you might find yourself listed among the outcasts who take a break from love on Valentine’s Day.
