Valentine Sweet Valentine





                                              Pluto assured me
                                              he had nothing to hide
no interstellar entanglements
no comets on the side
my heart once in fragments
magnetized wholesome in unity

Peace settled with mirth
as joy replaced sorrow
on wings I flew
without thought for the morrow
shunned fear as laughter grew
shameless in her rebirth

until thoughts of love arose darker
like those of Dorothy Parker
