Today I'm grateful I can lie out in the Sun
Today I'm grateful the flies don't drive me into a rage
Today I'm grateful AA gives me the ability to accept certain things which are definitely out of my control
Today I stayed in the Sun a hour...flies and all
Of course when I couldn't zen them away any longer..
I got up before I threw a fit
And wrote this while they buzzed..
Cuz I'm also grateful for the house and air-conditioning which the flies can't enjoy..
AA or any real twelve step group can give you freedoms in spite of the trouble surrounding you..
It's only momentary even if it's a few years...
