A poem for the chronic relapser:
IT
What is IT
that is what you say it is about
You say he didn't get IT
He had to go back out
Well I've been out
and then back in
and then went back out
again and again
And every time I'm in
I hear you all say
He still hasn't got IT
Maybe he will get IT another day
So What is IT
I ask you that question
You say that IT is IT
It is following a suggestion
It is working the 12 steps
Because they've been suggested
It is talking to a sponsor
And doing what is requested
IT is just plain IT
IT is being honest, openminded and willing
IT is talking to someone else
IT is feeling all of life's feelings
IT is not elusive
Not a mystery to be solved
IT is a simple program
That requires a little resolve
love it!
