I've found that during the holiday season, for some, loneliness can feel more intense. While you may be seeking a relationship, I feel that it's important to not let that search consume your life, because that sort of living can put an undue amount of stress on yourself. Reflecting on why you seek a relationship is (in my uneducated opinion) a generally healthy thing to do. 

Now, onto our poetry lesson. Couplets are poems consisting of two lines. They may be rhymed or unrhymed, and they may match in meter, or be different. 


To Search
I look upon the streets and feel a void within my heart;
They pass along with hand in hand, but we are far apart.

To Err
I recognize your darling front — and yet I find I've erred;
amid the bustling boulevard, my senses were impaired.

To Weep
Deprived of you I'm short of breath; my eyes well up with tears;	
My ragged sob remind me so, of days of yesteryear.

To Yield
So many nights I've spent in search of that forsaken love;
accursed be the ones who yield — a group I'm part thereof.

To Find
Yet having ceased my fruitless quest for loves I never found,
By chance, I've found, to my chagrin, much loveliness abound.


Merry Christmas, you filthy animals. 
I mean that lovingly.


Rabbit Cam
Who enjoys using toys while viewed /
But a rabbit of habit most crude? /
Hopping onto a site /
And squeezing in tight /
He performed public acts quite lewd.

Through requests of auto-fellation /
He fulfilled his oral fixation /
With a rubber-cast male /
Tucked under his tail /
His voyeurs enkindled elation.

Blindfolded and so fuzzily cuffed /
Our rascally rabbit was chuffed /
When his toy hit the spot /
In popped its knot /
He cried out and came, fully stuffed.
