Anticipated Garbage Day: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

This is one of those/
romantic days you hope for,/
and it is garbage.

Epilogue to Valentine’s Day Sonnet: an 11:59 pm Romantic IMprov Sonnet

Epilogue on Valentine’s Day at 11:59 pm

Now that this romantic day
has come and quickly passed,
And I, delaying, didn’t say
what I should, while the sun light cast,

Permit me
finally,
to tell you
my heart, true!

Let me at last say
what I should have said
during Valentine’s Day,
before the sun bled, dead!

All this long, alone, romantic day through,
I have thought of and missed only you.
