What I Do Best

Rhyming words is what I do best
A blank sheet of paper
To lay my pen to rest

Thinking of various ways
To say what’s on my mind
Needing to be thoughtful
Although sometimes unkind

Emotions and memories
Spill onto the papers edge
Expressing my feelings
Taking a ethical poetic pledge

Releasing some tension
Rage and disappointment too
The cheapest type of therapy 
The most powerful I ever knew
