Full Moon Anger!

Moon-time misery has barely figured

apart from twice

when pmt occurred at full moon...

a few hours clouded by anger

an inexplicable rage

at what? i don't know

but i haven't had this before

a build up of pressure

like steam waiting to explode...

not like me.

and of course it did.

explode.

and it went.

the red mist subsided 

and everything softened

but... a conversation with someone 

mired in misery, depression & anger

who seeks my attention

but chooses not to be helped

he has exploded

towards others at work

a long time problem

of anger he can't contain

clarity. 

i think.

it is not the first time i have experienced 

the pain, the feelings

of others

but usually i recognise what is not mine

as my body moves towards menopause

 much is written about 

mood swings & scattered emotions

perhaps this expectation clouded my view

i overlooked the signs

perhaps some of the emotional swings

are due to an increased sensitivity

which for me 

seem to be at full or new moon

lessons to embrace

not fear

in order to don

the mantle of wise-woman
