i know im late, happy v-day

i know im late, happy v-day

A Poem by Everett Dulin
"

Fun fact: Saint Valentine was a beekeeper well known for how much he cared for his bees. Thinking of them as his friends.

"
did it hurt?
when every sting
pussed hatred and envy
but you said it helped the healing

i curse you st valentine
and i curse those bees
that youre so fond of
thinking they could also be mine

i know it hurts now
because i opened that hive
and i was swarmed
fleshy swelling enveloped my sight

and when my stings
pussed, there was no hatred
and there was no healing
i was only burning and blind
