i'm climbing out of
a hole i dug for forty
fun-filled pointless years

Elseware

Drunken brawl last night
Slurred speech. Puking in the loo
They were all part dead

I love diet coke
Even though it's craptastic
I'm fully alive

I thought I was stuck
I'm moving it's true, but slow
A creaky mill wheel

zerothehero

the wheel keeps turning
sometimes imperceptibly
but it keeps turning

Elseware

I have patina
But I call myself jaded
All in how you see

zerothehero

when i appear green
it is most often because
i'm about to puke

Elseware

Wash the yuck dishes
Scrub these jeans. Vacuum those rugs
It must be Monday

LDT

A friend reminded
I am sixteen months sober
I'll gladly take that!

Elseware

Congratulations!
LDT, you're a winner
Does PAWS go away?

Gilmer

Don't know if it's PAWS
Something has come over me
Want to run and hide.

Elseware

I suffer from PAWS
Everyday around four
Low point of my day

You need ((((((hugs))))) again, Gilmer!

Gilmer

Thanks, Else.

I think I'm depressed
Not the norm for early spring
Snap out of it soon

Elseware

My husband is mad
I just sat there and listened
I needed to hear

Elseware

I'm a piece of work
Full blown addict behavior
I hope he comes back

Gilmer

I'm so sorry, Else.
Tough to hear it when they're right
Better woman now.

Elseware

I know what it's like
To tolerate an addict
Intolerable

Elseware

Been urging him on
Wanted him to be angry
I so deserve it

Self centered and sad
Wanted to prove myself right
I am right, all right

Gilmer

It will pass, Elseware.
He's off stewing and ranting
Eventually wear off.

zerothehero

no drama today
nothing to remember or
forget - i'm grateful

Gilmer

Out of whack of late
Remember light routine is good
Doing well so far.

zerothehero

Are the colors I
see when I pass gas from old
acid trips and stuff?
