Angry, blistering, snarling,
My kettle needs attending to,
It is screaming for my attention.
Inside it boils skin-burning
Frustrations
“Pour me out!” it cries,
Steam pouring from the only escape route.
I hurry to stop its ear-piercing screech,
Unsure of what it says about me…
Am I alleviating its pain?
Or assuaging my own?
*No pic today to go with this. Letting it speak for itself.
Dear Lizzi, it speaks for itself, it really does.

I wish I knew the answer to this. Am I advocating or just making myself feel better?

Exactly. Sometimes “what gets you through the day” just doesn’t work, does it?

I’d say a bit of both, but tea is always good 🙂
