In the life of each AA member there still lurks a tyrant.
His name is alcohol. He is cunning, ruthless.
And his weapons are misery, insanity, and death.
No matter how long we may be sober,
he always stands at each man's elbow,
ever watchful of an opportunity to resume
his destruction.
It's hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in my head.
