We are having a party, 

Only certain folks can come. 

Those without a sweetheart, 

Are free to join the fun.

They usually only honor, 

Those with lovers rare.

But trust me when I tell you, 

Those lovers won’t be there.

This party’s for my single folks,

Those not with the status quo.

And if you have a problem, 

To this party you must go.

Bring your troubled hearts,

Your unrequited woes.

And drink a little gin with me, 

Drink til you no longer feel your toes.

Then in morning light, 

When all is as it should be. 

We will be the richer ones, 

See you next year byob.

I wrote this for my nephew one year as a joke for his woes at being Anti-Valentines Day. So I share it every year as a joke. It is for all you single folks who wish this day didn’t exist.
