Anti-Valentine

OK....

this is a first for me a contest, just kinda trying out for it, seeing how it goes and all. well lets get started. (note: I feel really awkward )

I simply despise Valntines Day! So do me a favor and write something that is anti-valentine [as the name suggests] It should be dark and morbid! or something among those lines , GRAB A THESAURUS!!
Do not make it cliche' Make it original and unusual.

Make it about murder, hate, etc, Idk maybe something like demons or really creapy stuff; just whatever you think would fit this description of anti-valentine. just make it very dark if its mild Idk what i'll do I may be harsh and throw it out depending on my mood so keep it interesting and not bland

-RULES-
1) No cutting, suicide, or emo pieces

2) Free verse or rhyme; preferably I like free verse

3) Put “Dead 2 U” in the author's comment so I know you read the rules

4) No sticky caps or chat speak

5) No bashing of anyone or their work (I seen this alot in other contests so yeah)

6) Background and fonts must be readable

7) No erotica

OPTIONS:
um none really just follow what I've posted above.

REMEBER! Keep it interesting and dark to the MAX!

    I have a sort of anti-valentine poem, but it isn't dark, it is supposed to be funny. Oh well, you don't take pre-writes anyways.

    I hate all the valentines day mushy stuff too. St. Valentine was a cool guy, but this is just a halmark day, and it is so cheesey! The only good thing about this day is you can get candy on sale, and valentine candy usually isn't very good anyways. Oh well, I am babeling, have fun with your conetst! I may look back to see what people come up with.

    Hey do you ever read the comic Fox Trot? I love how that guy does Valentines day. The little kid makes all sorts of gorey valentines to hand out in class, it is fun. Anyways, I am rambeling again, have fun with your contest! I am going to go now so I don't ramble to you any more, you probably already think I am some sort of freak.

      Lol actually you seem very entertaining but hey about that poem I could still read and comment on it..I could probably use a laugh or two could be fun. And for the record I like people who ramble its quite interesting on what people will continue talking on about

    I am so bad, but I LOVE this idea!!!!!! I'm not a Valentine's day nut either. I believe you should love someone every day of the year. I think I'll try this and completely shock everyone who knows me!

    Last minute entry...

    It's nice to be in familiar territory. Anti-valentine territory. Almost all of my poems are anti-valentinish, but here's a new one for the likes of your most intriguing contest.

    Best of luck to all.
