Cold breeze and heavy rainfall,
Weather for two to join.
Chills run down Greg’s spine,
Arousal up his loin.

Supposedly, he has a gift,
Bigger than any latex wrap.
The girl allows and receives
Gladly abiding the trap.

A gift more than she bargains
A cost greater than one dime.
Because tests are such wastes,
Of money, effort and time.

A few weeks and a genital rash,
Earn little over a frown,
But a discharge screams ‘infection’
And ‘Greg’s out of town.’

Cold breeze and heavy rainfall,
Syphilis esteems such a day,
A day second in spread to,
The debauchery of valentine’s day.
