Next year, we need to write some poems for the unloved, unwanted and unappreciated!!! Let's choose our mascot (no cupids please!) and our symbol (not a heart of flower!) what do you think? |

First off I vote for Oscar the Grouch for Mascot, that or Dracula! My reply about horrible love experiences come later  A woman has got to love a bad man once or twice in her life to be thankful for a good one. Mae West (1892-1980) |

Poet deVine, I am with you!! As my sister says, why is it only on Mother's Day and Valentine's Day that the kids or spouse can say or do anything nice! So, just let me know. ME |

Oscar sounds great. Symbol? How about dead flowers?  Joy |

Sorry, guys, but your choices are being built upon an obviously flawed foundation. Unloved, unwanted and unappreciated? There are no people fitting that description as long as Sharon is hanging out in these parts. I hear she's moving out of Arizona because the state is no longer larger enough to hold that heart of hers. |

Thank you Ron! As you know, you hold a very large section of this heart and always will. |

i agree "OSCAR THE GROUCH" is the best candidate for a mascot  with reagrds to symbols what about his house? "THE TRASHCAN" I posted this about love before. I think it fits me most specially today  The Unloved Love is unequivocally the architect of one’s sorrow and misery The reason for a never ending constant flow of suffering Resolve, to this a continuous stabbing of undeniable depression Reality’s version of veniality and damnation The spell that casts a curse to carry the fires of hell Even just a glimpse is actually earning you the right to grieve Hard to accept on one's self, but hypocrisy is indeed what it seems to be So, tell me this with truthfulness Am I not to claim even an ounce of happiness? Do believe when I say that I actually try Either I’m foolish enough to believe in such change, Or that it’s just my plain stupidity that drives me to I too try to dispute it with my own claims of innocence... That in an attempt to cheat or hustle life’s cruel intentions Though it seems like time’s hands are already most certain A conclusion that such an assertion is that of no merit at all So, how am I to justify this, my excuse for an existence? Or is it that I’m in destiny’s list for the process of extinction ? For I am the unwanted, The unworthy, And most certainly The unloved.... So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S. [This message has been edited by acire (edited 02-14-2001).] |

ok so let me be cynical for a moment (what with my romantic history this is not entirely unheard of)...what I am about to say could be entirely ficticious or it could be entirely true. What you believe is entirely up to you. What do you all think of someone who totally doesn't have a clue Valentine's Day has even hit, let alone says or does anything remotely out of the ordinary or even romantic? Well I give it two thumbs down and a big  ~H |

YEAH!!!! I'm very single this year... Oscar the Grouch is a great mascot...and the trash can is ideal for a symbol (that's where we can throw all the cards and flowers! We'll eat the candy though  ).Have it it everyone! |

Ok, no Oscar. How about Pinky & the Brian? We could take over the world and ban Valentine's day altogether!!!!  Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

I personally am not all THAT much against Valentine's, but I couldn't help this...how about a skunk for a mascot...no trademark infringements to worry about there!! And, for the symbol...hmm...how about roadkill...that is really nasty, I know, but it just couldn't be helped!! sp  everytime I close my eyes, I see your face, I taste you on my lips... every night I fantasize that I can feel you on my fingertips... |

For your no flower thing, take the flowers off the stems, and have thorn stems! Mascots. Ya know the first thing that comes to mind is a broken heart. But, you could have a donkey.  Maybe a snake?A lizard? A skunk? |

I have a friend who made a valentines day card. It was blue and had a large black heart that was jaggedly cut down the middle. On the front it said "Have a". Inside it said "heart breaking, black, antivalentines day card" with more black broken hearts. it rocked. gotta go, back later. ....peace as a primary objective is dangerous because it implies that we would sacrifice anything for the sake of it....

The black broken heart could be our symbol! Did you know that Valentines Day is the second worst day in the year for suicides? Not good. ....peace as a primary objective is dangerous because it implies that we would sacrifice anything for the sake of it.... Robert Kaplan |
