The Drunken Fox & The Grapes of Recovery
Jim Anders
Author of Autobiographical Fiction "All Drinking Aside: The Destruction, Deconstruction and Reconstruction of an Alcoholic Animal" & the Non-Fiction, "BECOMING UNBROKEN: Reflections on Addiction and Recovery."
An urge submerged leaps forward in this fox. A hunger overcomes him seeing a cluster of grapes glistening in the sun. Out of reach. Out of reach. He cannot attain them alone, sly as he may be. "They're probably sour anyway," he says aloud, turning around, looking down.?Sobriety will not be his today.?"They're probably sour anyway."?A victim of familiar pain, afraid to choose the path that only help can help attain.?"They're probably sour anyway." Sobriety will not be his today. Another drink will come his way.
