About this video
Released in 2013. Recited by Joe Brennan
Getting to the BOTTOM of addiction is a key, and it may take a long time. Not for the big man below! In case you can't see, he is sitting on the TOP of the refrigerator.

Poem
My therapist said
that in order for me to grow,
I must get to the bottom of my addiction,
and that’s the only way to go.
He said it may take up to a year
but I didn’t want to wait.
Once I got home I right away started,
and boy, didn’t I do great!
that in order for me to grow,
I must get to the bottom of my addiction,
and that’s the only way to go.
He said it may take up to a year
but I didn’t want to wait.
Once I got home I right away started,
and boy, didn’t I do great!
First I got to the bottom,
than to the middle of it,
then cleared stuff from up there.
What a great job I did!
Surely not a year, not even a day,
and I’m already at the top!
And I am really proud to say,
I grew! A lot!
than to the middle of it,
then cleared stuff from up there.
What a great job I did!
Surely not a year, not even a day,
and I’m already at the top!
And I am really proud to say,
I grew! A lot!

COMPETITIVE DIETER
POEM
Released September 27th, 2012
COMPETITIVE DIETER
My friends want to know why when I’m on a diet
I feel so fulfilled and great.
So here I am revealing my SECRET,
what I do when I want to lose weight.
I absolutely refuse to be
like others who failed before.
One diet is not good enough for me
I’ve got to do better and MORE!
I go on THREE diets at the same time
and I eat them together like that:
one high in carbs,
second high in protein
and the third one
high in fat.

ONLY FROM HERE
I have always believed that...
Released Sep. 8th, 2012.
I have always believed that there is goodness in everybody. No matter how bad the person appears to be, my love and faith can dig that goodness out of them. Yet, what I have learned recently... the hardest lesson for me in my life... is that some people are cut from a different cloth, and sometimes they may be the person that is closest to you.
The love I feel, is not what they feel. The compassion I know is not what they know. The respect for others I carry in my heart, is not what they carry. My desire to remove burdens from my loved ones, and from the people around me, is not their desire. As a matter of fact, they will use that desire to benefit themselves. Being a victim, a target of a person like that, learning that hard lesson in life, aches beyond my words...
Sometimes we must go to the darkest place, the most scary place for us, to really see... It is from this DOWN feeling, and from giving myself the permission to sit in that darkness (not an easy step) that I wrote this UP-lifting poem...

POEM
There was no room for me
on the sunny meadow
So I bowed my head down
and moved… to the shadow.
And I stood there watching
how others rejoice
feeling poignant sorrow,
no hope and no choice.
Yet, it’s only from here,
From this dreary sight,
from this deep, deep darkness
That I saw the Light.
