Fake Holiday

Cards
candies
stuffed animals
flowers

All of these are objects
objects that are bought
objects that are given
objects masking falsehood

Valentine's Day
it is supose to be a holiday about love
about expressing that love
with things

Where is its backgrounds
what god/goddess inspired it
what event in history made this day
why do we celebrate Valentine's Day

Some say it is to celebrate love
I say that you should do that every day
love is a blessing
not an icon that gets only one day of worship

Valentine's Day
is about putting money in a salesmen's pocket
is about the false worship of love
is a holiday without foundation

Love should not be worshipped one day out of the year
love should be treasured everyday
you shouldn't need a holiday
to tell the one you love...

"I love you."
