happy whatever

i used to go through
the phone list,
like most people do
and lamely send out
a text holiday
greeting.
but i stopped doing that.
i stopped
sending a picture
of a turkey,
or Santa Claus,
or a three-leaf clover
on St. Patty's Day.
i'm done with fake greetings.
if you want to go
out,
call me.
and i'll do the same
for you.
there should be one
day out of the year
where you
can say all of your happy
whatevers
and get it out of
the way.
maybe new years day,
start with happy new year
and go on
from there.
Presidents day,
valentine's day,
birthdays, etc.
ten minutes, tops and you're
done.
let's join hands 
together and put
Hallmark out of business.
