<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I wish I cried
\nI wish, like most women, I found tears useful
\nI wish they would make me feel better
\nLike I\u2019ve been lead to believe
\nNot worse, like I have found to be true<\/p>\n
But I don\u2019t know catharsis
\nI go within, I recede
\nEmotion is best buried
\nWhich is just as well
\nI\u2019ve been taught expressing it only
\nAdds punishment<\/p>\n
But once buried
\nThe emotions mix, bleed together
\nFear indistinguishable from dread, indistinguishable from humiliation,
\nIndistinguishable from guilt, indistinguishable from loneliness
\nAll reduced to a brown roux of anger
\nThe least honest emotion of them all<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, like any radioactive stew
\nNothing stays buried
\nGround water is inevitably poisoned
\nAfter a while trees rot and die
\nThe Earth rejects and
\nEventually, all contamination seeps to the surface
\nRavaging indiscriminately<\/p>\n
