The day after Valentine's Day,
for most may be sublime,
as a day achieved a measure
of some success, while
others gave it no light of
day most likely from
lacking a partner and
therefore gave it the
right of way so as not to
upend somebody's
prospects.
They would make some
sort of remedy to either
fill the void, or most
respectfully, start out
afresh and find somebody
special that'll be the
impetus for next year's
scheduled soiree.
Yet there is that one
element that would
toss the monkeywrench
into the woodwork, one
that seldom heard in
open conversation,
and that would be,
infidelity.
So Valentine's Day,
seems also to be in
reserve for even
those who do not
deliver flowers
with the unsigned
card at the front
of the door.
