Laurie's Haiku

Laurie of Lamplighters claims she works on a pig farm and is losing her hair, so she offers this:

Hair rotting off head
Wrap arms around you tightly
We merge into stench.

Haiku from George

George writes: Just shootin' from the hip here. See if these work.
Sort of "What it was like, what happened, and what it's like now"
in three acts through haiku. Not quite my story exactly, but I kinda like it.
:-)


Lips reach for bottle,
yet bottle drains only me.
Solution exists.

One day at a time
God's grace accrues by minutes
if that's what it takes

Job car wife kids dog
honest, willing, open mind
country song backwards

George (AA Men, 7-15-2007)

Big Book, Page 30

Drunk is Pitiful,
Incomprehensible and
Demoralizing

Fear, new job today
God as I understand him,
Abstinent today
