The best I could do with my beast was
to put it to sleep. And for the last 22yrs.
it has remained in a coma state but continues
to grow. To wake it up after all these yrs in
slumber, only a monster will emerge.
Not a kitty cat or a little tiger, but rather
a devilish of a monster with claws and teeth
that will shred and destroy everything in its
path showing no mercy.
I think with the tools and knowledge that
I have learned in my recovery program, I
will stay on course and keep my beast asleep,
so I can stay sober, happy, content and
forever grateful.
