Catharsis

The pestle is the stick, you see,
The mortar is the bowl.
Put some grain inside and "Whee!"
You're ready now to roll.

Crush the grain with vigor
Give it all you've got
Grind it into powder, man,
As you surely ought.

Think of doing justice!
Think of righting wrong!
Think of rank iniquity
And crush it with a song!

I want one for spices!

We don't have one yet of any sort, though it's on our short list of kitchen supplies. We're really getting into herbs, both for cooking and home medicine, so I don't imagine it will be too long before we pick one up.
