Catharsis Portrix

before the refreshing wind of  night
   I unload what's  hurting me  much
 and stay with the suave relief of Porto wine!


Emotional Catharsis

a renewed state of 
emotional catharsis is what
written expression brings
with it's purification of 
past hurts in it's wake 
creating an internal 
release of pent up tensions
Form: Lyric

Art is sincerely satisfying.
A great catharsis of movement,
From nostalgia, sadness, 
And deep uneasiness.
From still-life and scenes
Of the true world 
Kept captive 
For all 
Time.

Turquoise Sea

turquoise sea on beach
surges in  those fondling chins ...
stars of catharsis

Premium Member Catharrrrrrrsis It's How I Spell Relief

Inspired by but not written for a contest



I once knew a man from Tarsus
He had only one way of catharsis
He would sit on a pot, 
and release all he'd got
Stressing his point with an arsis

Spilling My Tears Catharsis

Spilling my tears,
 drying my inner river
 washing my soul inside
This I do when I laugh...
When I laugh with an opened smile
when I clean out   sourness
I feel lucky on the outside
and renewed within... !

Catharsis

Vile

Dart

Piercing

Hindsight Thoughts

Bring Anguish and Grief

Remove this Vile Thing from my brain

Memories flow out with arterial bleeding

Flushed out with unconstipated relief as catharsis regains hold on reality

Premium Member Circadian Rhythms

Wind,
look how 
wild it blows
across the waves;
Ancient melody;
A song of catharsis,
whitecaps wash the pain away;
The innate noise bestowed on you 
it cancels out the internal drum;
Ocean breezy circadian rhythms.
Form: Etheree

Catharsis

there are creatures that sleep
as minerals
dream as vegetables,
wake up as animals
 to be  as criminal...
Regression in time and space...
Me, by my side
I, what God ordains me
I simply do
so I'll recognize who I am!

The Last Stroke

<
The smooth ink stains bleed a crimson red with each stroke The pages' colors publish a perilous message against the black granite surface Black, red, white Its message is clear It's time to stop writing

Premium Member Tansy

My cathartic heart
threw away the finished leaves of bitter autumn's burning
I brewed myself a loving cup, made sweeter by my learning
tansy, bay with chamomile, bright meadow flowers to sip
tastes better far than poison to be found upon your lip

Finding Catharsis

Some say pain drives art.

Is that how you fell in love with poetry?

Title:
Finding Catharsis 

(A lone voice whispers)


Conjuring stanzas 

Baptised sanctified with pain 

To keep on floating

Catharsis

Cut down routine, dine 
Alfresco.
Toss your shadow in the evening wind
Harmonize your dreams with the 
Allure of a half moon wooing a
Red tinged 
Sunset,
Inner peace
Sets in stealthily

The Gibbous Moon

Tonight the gibbous moon shined bright
Like catharsis for my infinite thoughts

Touched by natural chords, he
Called me above dark treetops
Amid cerulean skies.
As if, I belong with them, among myriad and myriad of stars, 
He drew me closer, ever nearer

Like Writing Limericks

Like Writing Limericks

Like writing limericks best I know for sure;
Are so nice and short and easy to endure;
Another one came;
Some more of same;
Even though modest and remain obscure.

Jim Horn

Kind of like osmosis and catharsis at the
same time.

can't stop till I read
every single one of them
why -in-the-world- not?

good, bad, in-between
virtues, vices, and feelings
it all takes me back

youthful nostalgia
library psychiatry
free book catharsis

my inner-school-self
needs literary healing
ongoing escape

Premium Member metaphors of regret

I dreamt of a poem forgot the words As beneath the salty cold brine of tears silence floats, whilst I’m coloring kohl rain in metaphors of regret across blood red ruby carnations that bleed silken sonnets for an ocean-dipped catharsis

Premium Member Is Writing More Cathartic than Sex

  
     Writing provides a catharsis, said the poet
         All those who are stressed-out know it 

     Asked, “Does it do the job better than sex?”…

     Thumb and finger supporting his chin, the poet sighed, 
        “For the answer to that ~ I defer to my ex.”

Lea of Thought

Horizon of knelling bells
Adequate feeling bestowed
Hue, odor, sound, sensation
Harmoniously dwell
Tangible gnosticism
Catharsis
Potency yells
Largess
Ample satisfaction
Darkness, Thy power quells
Allah, family, thought

Camelot...Freedom
 
Allah: Arabic word for God

On the Beach Nostalgia of a Poet

White dunes fluttering sands
in the heart delusional disappointments
in my world it was the edge of time
since you left in an april
this and everything on this beach I realize
nothing seduces me anymore....
All this sadness, dead landscape
in this beauty I am less than a grain

CATHARSIS

I emerge from echoes, from a dungeon so deep,
To erase the ink of inner turmoil you keep.

Thy mollycoddled soul, relegated to bits,
Here's tulsi for the bruises where life's pain sits.

I'm the crucible's fire, shaping an alchemist’s design,
An emotional release, making every space divine.

Premium Member ANXIETIES

aimless
   resigned 
hopelessness 
  
an aura
   surrounded
nevertheless 
deliberate
&
    expressive
an agonised
      sense
of
the subjective
decoded

traces
of
   intransigence
an
  inadequacy 
apparently
  ambivalent
catharsis
in the
     purification
           plane

Premium Member The Price of Green Eyes

How sad do you think I truly felt,
When the rock struck her head?
She tumbled right over the cliff’s edge,
After all the blood we'd shed.
She broke my nose, she cracked my skull,
While playing the "best friend" part
All because I found a love
That she lacked in her own heart.
Such relief, isn't it?
Form: Rhyme

Catharsis

C rying my heart out 
A t night, watched only by God,
T ears flow at their own pace,
H ardly controlled by me;
A wake I lie, my mind working,
R apid thoughts come and go,
S ilence slowly silences my sadness.
I magination mingles with heartfelt words.
S erene, I write, each line a cathartic revelation.
