Cleansing Tears!
This piece remind me that I need to pray to be able to have a good cry. Things have been coming to my attention that have been weighing heavy on my heart & I know I need a cleansing weep to restore & get the pain out. Sometimes the pain is so intense & it just doesn't release until I just reach the flood stage & I think I'm just about there. Perhaps I've not been able to have a good soaker 'cause I've been spilling out the angst in words. That works well too, but theres nothing like a good cleansing release from the gut, emptying out all the stale air & allowing the body to heave, shake, quake & plain gush! Stored up tension & grief is toxic & no one needs that! I'm getting near pillow time. I'll try to post a few more right now & vector to my comfy bed. There's a light rain now & some thunder so perhaps that'll set the stage! Nightie night!

The lines flow
with the fluidity of tears,
repetition softly moving
to the conclusion of "joy."
Almost syllogistic in the
progression of thought.
Well done, Frans.
