#333 the heart is an organ









wal-mart hallmark aisle
february 15th, half price
for my never-to-be, valentine

grocery store bin by the check-out
discounted hugs and kisses
never-to-be smile, my valentine

best value
Florence the Florist dumpster
and in my journal a note for a card
trademark never-to-be, valentine

she sat two seats in front of me in grade 7
and i don't know who sat between
i read deep into her cut-out valentine that said bee mine
never-to-be, valentine

i make love to you
under my covers alone
never never-to-be, valentine
