As we edge closer to Valentines/Singles Awareness Day, I thought it'd be fun to share one of my more popular pieces during my open mic runs.
To My First Ex

......I hate you.

This is probably one of the most honest pieces I've ever put together.

Imagining this read aloud...
That's awesome.
Enjoy V-Day for what it may be for you. . .
A day where you don't have to fret about choosing the white or red, or what possible allergens could be in those chocolates. No need to worry about making the restaurant reservation on time. No need to worry about how many "points" you can redeem for your efforts. . .so to speak.
At work I overheard people mentioned that they had bought gifts for their mothers. A second mother's day. . .? It's not that far from May.
As for myself (as usual. . .) I find after 28 years it has become a sort of "dodge the bullet" game, where whether or not I am single or steady, this is a day I do not play into.
In our day and time, my own ideal would be to celebrate yourself on this V-Day (V rhymes with me!). That whatever object that you've been eying out for some time? Buy it. That whatever thing you've been wanting to treat yourself to? Do it. After all, if you'd go out of the way for someone else, why not yourself?
But back to you! Awesome piece. Keep them coming.
