Ted Koozer on VD

Ted Koozer was just on ALL THINGS CONSIDERED reading his little poems. He was quoted as having said that "Valentine's Day is the poet's holiday." He went on to say that Valentine's Day was all about expressions of sentiment... puhleeeeeeze... when asked why I don't think of myself as a poet it's because there are self righteous Koozers running around laying claim to hallmark holidays. It's ok, step away from the ledge, put down the pretentious boat anchor, you can still hang yourself without splitting the pavement with your gizzards.
