Sit in a Circle Everyone - Group Therapy & Me

  Background Report:   You know what you did to me, you knew in advance the consequences and the repercussions of your behavior, there was no 60-Minute televised devastating surprise presented to you in an effort to acknowledge the damage you were causing - it was well known and you didn’t care.   So, when we are all wondering how did I get here, we know.   I know you know, you-know I-know, and you know that I had the same lack of control or will power that would have made me the stronger person we wished I was were that it was true - again, this is the best version of me to date.   Imagine that, like an IBM computer, a classic Camaro, I’ve got industrial Steele designs and sleek features but can’t turn a corner to without fishtailing and unless you like staring at black and green screen - I’m out dated, I can’t be younger, I can’t be better, I am the leader that made the rest of you even smarter and faster - and one day, maybe, kids you can out form your master...

The Daily Affirmation Plan

The Daily Affirmation Plan  (1) At the Party, Talking to Colleagues Warm light, corner conversations.   A flush of untucked shirts, pardon me’s, gentle hand on shoulder, passing by, excuse me, coming through. I am barely listening to her, when she says “You know, Jack London wrote that story about me.” “Huh?” I look at my drink, bare bones to ice cubes, I’m melting, I’m melting, I croon in my head like a witchy drunk just converging with the floor. “Jack, the book about the dog that made him quit drinking, you know?   I was the dog.”   She says, seriously, says. I burst into laughter.   I don’t even make the catty remark about her being a perfect bitch too, I am not even sure they existed in the same era and I am certain she only watched the Disney version of any book in her general education vocabulary and remedial inner workings of a brain.   I walk away, fully awake, still laughing and shaking my head and she mouths “Wha?” at me while I turn my head back...
