In verse as in a poem, I am assuming you mean? Well here goes.

I didn't escape insanity in 2010

I got to re-live the past again and again

It was the year that I truly stood up for myself for the first time

And left the rest of my family behind

It was the year that I finally found some true self-worth

And the year I felt truly alone on this Earth

It was the year I finally let myself truly see

And the year my family turned their backs on me

It was the year that I lost my truest friend

A year of beginnings, but mostly of ends

A year I will gladly leave behind me

But that has also taught me who I truly can be

So as I farewell 2010

And think back over this year (once again!)

Goodbye and farewell to a really shit year

And I wish us all a better time in the New Year!

Not sure if this is what you were looking for Doug, but here it is anyway. Not

my best year and I am glad to leave it behind. Hoping for a much better year in

2011. And intending to work hard to make it so!

Verse and in poetry, free verse, whatever creative spark flows out of

you.

And what I m looking for is to give you, and us, a chance to open the

creative valves and let our souls flow out.

As you did. There is no right or wrong here. This is you.

Thanks.

Doug

So far I noticed one other person has done this and their poem looks really,

really good. So I'm going to post mine and then go back and read their's. I

found it difficult to put 56 years in a few words.

Thanks to Doug for this idea. I belong to a writing website and we always do

poems on New Year's too, but I've been so angry since Fada has come to live with

us that I am finding it difficult to write. Fear of what might come out on the

paper, and what others might think of me, but here I can be free to say what I

truly feel.

So here's my life in a nutshell of verse. What an exercise!

Mom died before I was three

Leaving me alone with Fada BP

Off to auntie's a partial fix

Except for alcoholic uncle thrown in the mix

All we did was tiptoe between Uncle and Dad

Till I entered school and learned to read

Books said normalcy could be had

Books almost made me feel free

Entered high school

made friends

whose parents weren't cruel

Discovered teachers upon whom I could depend

Off to college and psych 101

No one's normal? This is fun!

Took the reading list to heart

Becoming healthy is an art

Sophomore year met a guy

Thirty years later on him I can still rely

Had three boys what a crew!

One's a recovering bi-polar too!

Bi polar son says we must choose to be well

Papaw's made his choice can't you tell

Papaw's old and lives with us.

All the old abuse makes me want to cuss.

I am healthy with boundaries strong and firm

But if I'm not careful he still tries to make me squirm

I read the books and work on skills

To keep Fada from making me ill.

Nothing I do can heal or give him hope

I pray each day for him to die

Thinking there might be mercy in the sky

Poor man but not poor me

I learned to like myself and be free

>

> Just as a fun exercise, guys, I share the following.

>

> It is a tradition in the Navy for the midnight entry in the ship s log on New

Years Eve to be done in verse. They get quite creative and have a great deal of

fun with it.

>

> So, as you read this, think about it, and for whoever would like to play our

at home version, :) , sometime tomorrow, New Years Eve, leave a post , in

verse, of your journey from Nada to sanity during 2010.

Wow! Jodie. You put a lot of what I am feeling in your verse! Love the part

about revisiting insanity again and again! Unless you can go totally and

completely NC there is no escape from the recurring insanity. I am working

through SOWE workbook and it helps also much gratitude to whomever posted the

site about being in the moment. That is helping me a lot. Hope it helps others.

Doug the poem thing is a good exercise for us. It took me places I hadn't dared

to go, but needed to visit.

Jodie,I love your poem :) It's awesome! Thank you so much for sharing it---it

describes the kind of year I've had too,except for me this was the year of

leaving the rest of my dysfunctional relationships behind and some of it just

happened of its own accord--I think there are just years like this and I think

they do serve a purpose.

For me it was year of burning the fields for new planting--to borrow from

your poem " a year mostly of ends " that I hope will turn over into new

beginnings.

Best wishes to us all for a better 2011....

In 2010, at fifty-plus

(How poignant this feels to discuss),

I came to realize finally

That (although I am still not free)

I was raised by someone quite sick.

Why did the Deity her for me pick?

In 2010, I found the name

For the source of my rage and shame,

My self-hate, all those wasted years

Spent mired in angst and pointless fears

That seemed real then. Those years are lost.

In 2010, I saw the cost

Of what was her disease, not mine

But was contagious, down the line

That is my life: yes, marrow-deep

The damage I still sadly reap

But strive, facing another year

To heal. The gold keys to my cage lie here.

Happy New Year, everyone!

8 Bells, the Monkeys and the Fleas.

An Ode to 2010 for the Child of a Borderline.

Its midnight on our good ship, life

The watch now sounds 8 bells.

Two thousand ten lies in our wake

It's joys and it's hells.

Too many nights we sailed through FOG

While fleas command our mind

Though flying monkeys lure us on

We leave all that behind!

Out! Out! We cry, unfeeling chains,

That bind us to BP s

You let us GO! We choose to heal!

So keep your biting fleas!

A year of grief, a year of pain

Yet hope was with us too.

For though our mom s were Borderlines,

We have each other too.

To be a child of Borderlines

Is swimming in a blender.

It matters not how hard you stroke

Your ass will still be tender!

Though painful slow, we grow, we grow!

And try to keep our zeal.

So for the last time in this year

I 'll say, " May we all Heal "

Doug, I just love the verse that you had in your poem

" To be a child of Borderlines

Is swimming in a blender.

It matters not how hard you stroke

Your ass will still be tender! "

This is so apt and it really made me laugh!

I, too, am in my 50's and looking back at the wasted years. You are not alone,

but I have hope that now they are both gone I am free to be me - to let go of

all of that and to embrace the time I have left and make something of it. Your

writing is a wonderful way to heal those hurts and I guess it has made us

stronger for it all.

Thank you for sharing this with us,

Many blessings and new vistas for you in the New Year -

May we both go forward with Joy and unleash our Spirits!
