    abreaction

    shall i whisper in mousy tones
    as to not disrupt your train
    of thoughtless contemplation?

    empty, you pour yourself out.
    trying to root your life in
    desert sand, its grainy

    texture harshly abrasive
    to my pale skin, my freckles
    scream, trying to get your attention.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
