My Funny Valentine

My Funny Valentine, originally uploaded by hpk.

Behold the way our fine feathered friend,
His virtue doth parade
Thou knowest not, my dim-witted friend
The picture thou hast made
Thy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair
Conceal thy good intent
Thou noble upright truthful sincere,
And slightly dopey gent

You're my funny valentine,
Sweet comic valentine,
You make me smile with my heart.
Your looks are laughable, un-photographable,
Yet, you're my favorite work of art.

Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentine's day

Posting this several years after my original funny valentine. Its funny how Valentine's day has become an instrument of criminals fucking around with both the haves and the have nots. I long for those wonderful days when Valentines day was about girls, greeting cards, love, friendship, courtship, make-ups, break-ups and fucking around.

Of course I am lying. I've never seen such wonderful days. I've only seen roiting, looting, molestation, humiliation, hooliganism, vandetta, gang-wars, etc., since I first came to know about V day. Each year Valentines day marks the shrinking of our fundamental rights, sense of security and the rule of law. Wish we really had the rights and freedoms promised in the constitution.

Fuck why can't V-Day be just about sex, love and friendship.
