Diabetes
My generation
With Aunt Mary’s
Pies and cakes.
Proven mistakes.
Costing bone, limbs
Eyes, cognition.
If you don’t comprehend
The very real demon.
My episode put me in
Emerg
Surrounded by afflicted Boomers.
Rustling blue curtains.
Tubes and anti biotic
Smiling gracious nurses
Long on their feet.
Providing their own
Kind of break
To the monotony.
I was lucky.
Part of my foot saved.
In the nick of time.
Lifestyle having to
Change in a regimen
Fueled by desire
More than duty.
