From Mary Oliver's Poem "Work"

and what could be more comforting than to fold grief
like a blanket ---
to fold anger like a blanket,
with neat corners ---
to put them into a box of words?

My brain kept coming back to this one today. I am loving the image of folding up anger and grief and putting them away. I'm going to copy this one into my notebook. Thank you for sharing.
