Catharsis (a poem)

Catharsis is a term in dramatic art that describes the "emotional cleansing" sometimes depicted in a play as occurring for one or more of its characters, as well as the same phenomenon as (an intended) part of the audience’s experience.

Catharsis
---------------------


Catharsis 
Essence of purging 
All those emotions 
Through a story that isn't your own 
A play of expertly written play wright 


You laugh 
You cry 
You feel fear 
A real cycle of a true play watcher 


At the end 
Wine is sipped 
Odd spinach/broccoli cheese wraps
Each of them hastily devoured
As if they are made for super heroes with a super power built in

Actors come out
Ooo ahhhhh
That man's alive
That woman didn't really do the deed
Minor sigh of relief as it felt so real

Good jobs and pats on the back
Are passed around like
Like its a group of stoners
Passing a bong who say, "Oh wow that is good"

Life continues
Like a clock
Expertly crafted
Because relief was sought
And obtained

\\\\Feeling empty tonight

Readers: Hey everyone I hope all's going great in you're world's. Checked my facebook page earlier and got a post from my best friend Jared Lewis who first got me into Queensryche years ago saying that Geoff Tate broke up with the band Queensryche and they are no more. Now apparently the rest of the band has recruited another singer but that won't be the same though without Geoff Tate. Apparently I do not have my photographs on here from my photo album it must be on the older laptop so i will have to grab those off of there. This is going to be a shorter blog here or a tribute of sorts but nevertheless they are the best band and i've seen them a total of eight different times and even had the pleasure of meeting Scott Rockenfield and Geoff Tate whom were both incredibly nice. Being a major fan over the years and seeing them that many times i feel like i have grown to accept them as part of a my repritore just bummed i did not get a chance to see them a year or s...

38 more days and a cup of chaotic with a piece of bread buttered with uncertainty

Readers: Hey I hope all is well in your world's i'd say I am doing better on my end just feels like school has me in a monumental choke hold. Current worry involves not passing all my classes as I come more to terms with the fact that it feels like I have now been at BSU forever and its time to *move on* so to speak. Get out there into the job's world and start making some substantial money. Hell I can't believe next week its time to register for classes yet again but I am not 100 percent sure this time on any of my classes which is quite scary! Sometimes I guess how that is how things play out nothing is ever certain 100 % in that big way like nothing else. Just had my second test for Commercial law and I am doubting i'll be getting that grade back tonight during my 6-9 class. I need to do an interview with two people for my class and another interview for my comm law class though its disconcerting still haven't heard anything back from Scentsy *crosses fin...

Its Over & Done. Time to forget her and get back out there

Readers; Hey everyone I hope all's going great in you're world's. Its now 12:17 in the morning just got home from Roaring Springs which I got in for free so that was fun but I found myself dwelling on what I didn't have; what had come to a close; that being the relationship with Jolene and I. Hell it was an even shorter relationship than the one with my last ex at this point I think I might be something of a plague. So many people are like you are awesome blah blah blah but of course what the fuck else are they going to say? Over these past weeks I learned I flunked my summer math class so that makes me feel overjoyed!  Hell at this point I am pretty sure I will get out of college when I am maybe thirty years old. At this point in my life I seriously am left wondering again what do I have to truly offer a woman seriously in a substantial sustaining relationship. I mean I still live with my parents while going to college. I have a part time job that somewhat pays the...
