Ode To Day 70 – The Day Was Too Tough
The day was too tough, everything went wrong.
I knew there was no way, I would remain strong.
The nic-bitch was on me, with all her old tricks,
I knew I would cave, I just needed a fix.
“What would it matter, no one would know…
Postin up daily is just for a show.”
I knew she was lying, but it kinda was true,
Its my word ‘gainst theirs, who knows what I do?
I kept a can hidden where no one could see,
Just one little pinch, is enough to be free.
As I bent down to get it, a smile creased my face,
It had been 70 days since my last lovely taste,
It’s my little secret and I’ll hide it well,
It’s not like this dip will send me to hell.
With it in my hand and mouth open wide,
I felt a big stirring from somewhere inside.
And then I heard it, so loud and so clear,
“PUT THAT SHIT DOWN, YOU’RE CAVING TO FEAR”
The shout was so loud, I thought it a scream,
And then I realized it had all been a dream….
You see there’s NO WAY I’m going back there,
Too many folks from KTC care!
The nic-bitch is dead, I’ve got her on the run,
Tomorrow I’ll prove it, I’m postin DAY 71!!!!

Man, I remember writing this one. Hit’s home BIGTIME. I hope I never have another dream like this again. But I am grateful to my Quit family for pulling me through the tough moments.
