  • Sad Day

    March 5th is a sad day for me.  It's the day between the Anniversary of both of my brothers.  Yesterday was the 10 year Anniversary of Joe dying and tomorrow will be 31 years since my brother Bill died.  They both died as a direct result of alcohol and are just 2 people, out of the dozens of people I have known, who have died or had their lives destroyed because of alcohol.

    I visited their grave yesterday and left some flowers and stones.  I also told them I didn't appreciate them leaving me behind.  Something I often do.  Woe is me, I know.  I miss them every day and will always speak about the evils of alcohol and all that it takes from those we love.

    Rest in Peace my brothers, while I continue to try and navigate life in Peace.

    I Love You.

What?

I AM still paranoid,
though reasons changed.
I'm paranoid that they'll figure out the language
and patterns of
me,
and I'll forget to rea
r r
ange.

Then I'll just be textbook.
