Beautiful!

But of course, the poem only SEEMS pointless at the time. The poem isn't pointless — it IS the point. It's part of the raft that keeps / us from drowning in grief / till we reach the lighter side.

Thank you. In the moment it can't change anything, so feels pointless, but it's a means of processing experience, at least.
