Cathartic

and now I have moved on
to singing along to 
Yellow Submarine,
but this song—and the whole album, really—
calms me down for some strange 
subconscious reason, 
probably from my childhood...
but what if it isn't related to anything like that
and it is just a newfound relaxing effect.
and now I am already overthinking it, devils.
I'll just sip my seltzer, go back
to simply appreciating it for what it is,
make peace with the beast 
that is my dumb heart.
