A couple of thoughts for V-day, early
Feb. 13th, 2003 03:08 pmIf you're feeling anti-romance, check out the Bittersweets at despair.com. They're cute little heart-shaped candies that say things like WANT 2C OTHERS, CALL A SHRINK and KICKED 2 CURB. Very funny.
If you're feeling pro-romance, check out this stanza from a poem by Robin Becker (not a famous poet, just a friend of a friend). It's a bit on the iambic side, and I do wonder at the ending implication that you're not living, or maybe just not being brave, while you're kissing. But I really like that last line anyway.
We see the financial guy tonight. Must be nice... must... be... nice...

I hope to stand with those who love
their lives in time to live them,
bravely, between kisses, beneath stars.
