Cathartic … Pen

Today’s word is “cathartic” … of or relating to the purging of the emotions or relieving of emotional tensions, especially through certain kinds of art, as tragedy or music. (Dictionary.com)

Pen
It might be cathartic,
To do a little writing,
Better than the worry,
Better than the fighting.

Outline a few thoughts,
Express some raw emotion,
Rip it up and burn it,
Like it’s a magic potion.

Then start from scratch again,
Write down some solutions,
And perhaps it will be time,
For some resolutions.
