Ahh.
Once again,
We are called to step into a crafted experience,
With a disgusting amount of pink scenery and cliche quotes,
All enclosed in a heart and/or stuffed animals.
'Time to play like you're in love!', they say
They assure us they know just what to get our 'others',
And for the most part they do.
Because they made him/her right after they were done with you.

Poor St. Valentine,
He thought he'd be remembered
As a lover of God
But that crafty Chaucer
Gave him a make-over
Head to toe,
Now he's nothing but a patron saint
Of cheap lust,
Demanding: M'aimer! M'aimer!
Hiding behind a mask of hearts and....
Price tags .
