Cupids Quits
You humans have a lot of gall. You pick one day of the year that you expect to celebrate the day of love, and, you invoke me from my retirement to don my old wings, bow and arrows and create miracles that I am just too fed up with to get involved in.
Well I gotta tell ya, Psyche and I are tired of it. Do you even know what I have been through in my everlasting life? Do you even care. I have been responsible for some of the most awesome love affairs in the history of humans. But do you listen. No..... You just satisfy your wanton natures and at the first sign of trouble you split, without even trying to work out the problems.
Now I am not with out feelings myself, don't get me wrong. After all I went through the most harrowing experience to win and keep the love of my life, Psyche. I mean mom was pretty jealous of her beauty and so when I said she couldn't look at me, and she did, I had no choice but to ban her. Talk about deep and traumatic pain!!!
But in the end it worked out and she's a goddess with me now. That does not make it any easier when year after year you mortals call me down from my comfy home and expect me to flit here and there expending my arrows so that you can have a night or month or even a year of debauchery.
Well, enjoy it, because I am quitting!!!!! I have decided that you are from next year forward responsible for your own love matches. You find em, you court em, you handle it all. No more, I tell you, no more will you scream my name and expect me to come running. I wash my hands of the whole thing!!!!
