Catharsis

My dear cousin,
I never knew you...
and yet I miss you still.

your music calls to my soul.

The shipwrecked clan,
I see you in my own eyes.

Time shifts,
and I think of you.

The rhythm and the pounding beat hypnotize me,
I let go.

Shades are best for this weather, don't you think?

Sure Jim, sure.

I smile.

I let my guard down...
Suddenly, I am called back.

My stomach aches,
and suddenly a cascade of emotions...
bloody and messy,
spill themselves out upon my kitchen floor.

Ouch.

Sweet relief... sweet, sweet relief.

I feel free.
