Valentine's Day

[Colm Roe]

As I left for work 
my lazy, useless, bitch of a wife actually hinted
'something shiny and something expensive, 
in a box with a bow would be nice'

On the way home
I stopped off at a DIY store, 
attracted by the bright shiny chrome axe in the window.

Her funeral cost me a small fortune
and I'm not sure her family appreciated 
the big red bow on her coffin.

But she got what she wanted,
it was 
our best Valentine's Day ever!

[Tracy Mitchell]

Geez!  The bow on the coffin!  
Another death poem - this time it is not your death.  
Very entertaining, in a dark sort of way.

Consider in S.2 L. 3 to delete either bright or shiny.  Just my thought.

Who are you? And what have you done with drab?

Not sure where this ranks on my list of all-time tasteless poems.  
But it is rank 

[Colm Roe]

I recited a poem last night, the theme was Valentine's Day; this poem was used as part of my introduction.
And was probably more high brow than the poem I chose 
Tracy forbade my from posting those here...but sometimes I can't resist.
So I'm on your list Tim 
No, I like that.
Thanks for looking in.
