The Zombie is Dead



The habit that withered and died is not coming back.  No amount of liquid is bringing back this affliction.  The roots of my alcoholism are fully understood now and I don’t have to worry that my ‘disease’ is capable of doing any pushup in any parking lot to regain any of its former strength not in my life anyway.  Alcoholism is a very powerful addiction and for me it was not so much physical as it was emotional and spiritual.  The physical part carried a lot of ceremony with it in staying stopped but it was the emotional and spiritual sickness that kept me up and longing for what would replace the chemicals that kept my senses and inspiration numb.  

There’s no such thing as a zombie but AA would have me believe that they do exist. And it is my experience only and it may not be your belief that the walking dead has been shot in the temple never to rise again.  No I am not suffering from delusional thought, it is just time for me to move past my own self-directed “Thriller” video and take my place among the earthlings that I left at age 17.
