Emotional Stew

What is emotional stew, you ask Describing that is in itself a task It's a motley mix of chunks and bits In a pot of feelings where everything fits Sometimes the batter will taste so sweet When joy and relief make up the meat The stew can be peppered with many a spice Like anger, frustration, and stubborn rice Or a salty blend with sauce of tears When sadness combines with multiple fears The results may yield just one small fault If you add boredom and apathy without any salt The coals beneath are stoked to perfection After dumping in your emotional selection The stew will boil as the feelings grow Just mind the mixture, don't let it overflow!
