Feel The Ouch

I haven't written much about Diabetes
The old, the young, the grumpy, the sweeties,
A collection of persons
Everyday, on my path,
They have one thing in common............
At night, they get a bath.

Blood sugar samples
Every six hours
Or more often,
If the crisis is acute
Fingertips scar
They don't soften,
And if blood pressure is low
Maybe a repeat poke
A couple of times,
Even I, feel the ouch
In the midst of my rhymes.
