Many of us are plagued by addictions of one form or another. Most are very hurtful and destructive. With spiritual help and resolve even the most insidious can be overcome. There is triumph and exultation when we summon the courage and the strength to do so... THE END OF ADDICTION
I finally had enough
I pulled him from my back
Startled and angry he cried out
I slammed him to the ground
I kneed him in his scaly gut
Twisting his head with all my might
I yanked it until it snapped
He didn't have a chance
I finally tired of it all
His control and influence
I never realized I could fight back
Kicking him into submission felt good
Breaking his hideous face with my fists
I left him before me vanquished
His broken tail slapping in the dust
Go ye and do likewise.
