Cupid sets hearts on fire

rew4er2nail

Every February fourteenth,

(reference Gregorian Calendar see

High Middle Ages his Saints' Day)

which combs thee

day after morrow aye decree


Tweedledum and Tweedledee

mine near one and same

mean mein near best buddy

donning Harris tweed plus sundry

other manifold couture to express free

expression like... once upon time

innocently naive barenaked lady

Chatterley young hippy feeling groovy,

albeit (think psychedelic) swiftly tailored

Harry styled vested gentry

twills nonetheless seam, née

upon aforesaid occasion intoxicated spree

formerly honored when animalistic glee

burst asunder courtesy biological key

hormones thawing lovely frozen bones

buzzfeeding, delivering, exuding earthy

primal propensities originally

linkedin with Lupercalia


nonetheless, encompassing various

animalistic, erotic, narcissistic... needs ye

not not necessarily be apprised,

where altruistic festive folk would easily agree

to hunker down no matter

sheepishness prevalent within

wooled wide web re:

guarding Islanders at their homes

Islands named total more'n three

 

amidst Lewis, Harris, Uist, Barra

and several pertinences, all fertile

like lasses christened Galilee,

yet all known as Outer Hebrides.

 

Now really as one ewe man

misanthrope to another I advise

Cupid doth surprize

god of desire, erotic love,

hoop fully experienced

before permanent demise,

where mortals whisked no matter

 

sullen sensate (human and/or other) being

vainly, morosely, and futilely cries

passion play his trademark guise

plus tell tale sign tear streaming eyes

(think head over heels

lovestruck gals and guys)

willingly yoking, where

(of quartz) romancing stone temple

pilot paunches face

(case toward albeit point yours truly) applies

young and old paramours recognize

steeped within storied mythologize

as one after another arrow

(whipped out quiver) guise

nocked, molded then loosed

courtesy once taut than slack bowstring

bedazzles lovers with stars

glistening in their lovestruck blind eyes

any unspoken inapropos prurience,

I eagerly, honestly, and readily, apologize.
