Do It Again

All my life I've been serially obsessive.
Video games, a recurring theme
since the original Mario Brothers
in the early eighties. Knitting...
but so tightly none of the sweaters fit,
counted cross stitch, oil painting,
genealogy, medieval history,
the history of Texas women judges,
and I could go on and on. Serially obsessive.
I came to OA almost eight years ago.
I've been as obsessed as in most things,
have done most of it, in seven states
and worldwide events. Not many
of the obsessions I've serially tackled
have lasted longer. But this one will.
I've done it all, beginning to end,
end to beginning, in several ways
but it's not time to set it aside
for another passion. It's time
to do this one again, better, deeper.
It's time to hold on and pass it on.
