This is a poem about addiction to alcohol. I felt chained whilst I was writing this many years ago. I’ve been sober for Over a 1 year.
It remains a demon
Though for attention,
demanding I be aware
Be conscious,
Mapped the unmapped waters.
My animal cortex, uncontrollable
and controlling,
A paradox,
with my conscious,
It became compatriot.
Possible to be befriend it
Because it discloses
Who I am to me
AND I AM OF THE DIVINE!
