everybody’s jumpin’

The Dave Brubeck Quartet's Time Out is on the stereo and all is well in the world. What with Valentine's Day fast approaching, you are probably thinking that you need to get your paramour a little something. Maybe even a little something-something.1 So why not write a love poem for him/her/it? I found a wonderful Love Poem Generator, so you don't even have to work at it.

But beware, poetry generators on the whole tend to create poetry that is less lyrical and more obscure, less dramatic and more disorderly. While many people like this, especially the editors of Poetry magazine judging from this month's edition, it might make your paramour scratch his/her/its head in confusion. Better just to get a I Love South Dakota classic thong. I hear it is all the rage this year.


  1. I'm not sure what "a little something-something" exactly is. I have a friend at work who uses the term whenever she is talking of romance and her husband, so I assume it is nefarious and obscenely biological. I have always wanted to be nefarious, but usually I must settle with just simply squalid … also, who exactly keeps a paramour in this day and age? [back]
