Alpha Malice
The Alpha Male's the occupying force here
Pompous and dogmatic from the get go
ENORMOUSLY SELF-CONFIDENT
Transposing AA doctrine to a "therapy" setting
Saying "I'm dandy just for today"
Sobriety being his Higher Power
Not a bad way to live, but please
Don't shove it down this throat
Until tact and diplomacy explode
This is Support Group #17
Pain management, not a kingdom
But no, he'll have his sway
"Offering" his "experience, strength and hope"
Slamming home the weight of his words
Constantly . interrupting . mine
While I think in terms of a shotgun
But ultimately learn to ignore this potentate
And say a prayer for my own serenity.

It is a beautiful prayer. I still say it myself occasionally. I'm glad you enjoyed this Taryn! It's a struggle to keep my temper while this guy's rambling on, but I can eventually reconsider and get a laugh out of it later. Better that than the shotgun option.

Ohhhh, crowfly, luv ~ :-*
This is breathtakingly wonderful! I was riveted to the page from beginning to end, luv. You tell it so, so magnificently!
Now, those words may seem too much for this piece. I say they aren't. And, before you demur, consider this: I wrote this immediately following upon my reading AND I was and am (remain) thus impressed!
Tis a most impressive thing when someone chooses serenity over shotguns, luv.
Tis just as impressive, you manage (somehow) to refrain from lambasting him when he interrupts you constantly to interpose his pontifications.
Truly, luv, you show a restraint I am uncertain I could display as successfully. ;-p
You write it excoriatingly well with sly, shrewd, keenly discerning wit... ;-*

Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful comment Savaja. I was kidding about the shotgun of course. Physical violence is not an option. I can't guarantee restraint involving verbal retaliation if he leans on me too hard. So far I've kept a lid on it.

Just keep thinking shotgun - smiles - gets under the skin nicely - I like.

Thanks Oblivion. I'm glad it's good for some laughs. Getting under your skin might be an added bonus.

I'm kind of glad you can relate, Crim, although you might be able to do without the Alpha males. They get to be a bore.

I'm glad you enjoyed this Jackie. Is there such a thing as an Alpha female? You could probably wipe her off the planet.

In my hiatus, I had forgotten how much I had enjoyed your word smithing Crowfly. My skin was crawling in empathetic irritation by the end of reading this, I could feel your subject's insensitive and self-centered consumption of everyone's time rattling your chains. I'm thinking he is lucky firearms aren't allowed in these sessions...

Wow. Someone's wrapped up reeeeeeeal tight! I'd prolly get kicked out of a meeting like that for asking the dude 'Hey man, were you maybe way the Hell better off all fucked up? Or was everyone around you better off 'cause it made you more tolerable?"
