I wish to dedicate this poem to the below blood glucose number, without which I would be just another uninspired
writer. I really enjoyed Amy's Dr.Seuss poem(Diabetes Mine), but it almost feels like someone has already written a diabetes poem about this.(if there is, I will delete this immeadiently and stop the infringing on their masterpiece)
I am Sam
I am Sam
Sam I am.
That Sam-I-am!
That Sam-I-am!
I do not like
that Sam-I-am!
Do you like
green glucose tablets and fat-free-ham?
I do not like them,
Sam-I-am.
I do not like
green glucose tablets and fake ham.
Would you like lows
here or there?
I would not like them
here or there.
I would not like them
anywhere.
Would you? Could you?
In a car?
Eat them! Eat them!
Here they are.
I could have one in a car
An ambulance, is never far.
You may like them.
You will see.
You may like them
in wild cherry!
I would not, could not, in that taste
Produces such a nasty paste.
Would you, could you, on a plane?
Would you, could you, in the rain?
I could have one in the rain
Liquify my half mushed brain
I could have one on a plane
Pretzel carbs, alas, in vain.
Would you, could you, in a store?
Would you, could you, out the door?
I could have one out the door
Grab two tabs, and search for more
I could have one in a store
Earthquakes radiate my core.
Would you, could you, at the docs?
Would you, could you, as a jock?
I could have one at the doc's
Guzzle juice, to stop the shocks
I could never be a jock
Fastest one against the clock.
Would you, could you, in a chair
While the dentist pokes in there?
Whould you, could you, on a date
Sweetness just a tad too late?
I could have one in the chair
(Novocaine makes that quite rare)
I could have one on a date
Petrify potential mates.
I do not like them, Sam I am
I do not like those hypo jams!
Would you, could you, after lunch?
Would you, could you, in a crunch?
I could have one after lunch
Yell at folks and take a punch
I could have one in a crunch
Diabetes, thanks a bunch!
Say!
In the dark?
Here in the dark!
Would you, could you, in the dark?
I could have one in the dark
Hand feeds mouth(the hungry shark)
You do not like them.
So you say.
Try them! Try them!
And you may.
Try them and you may, I say.
I have tried them, Sam.
I have tried them in the car
I have tried them on a plane
I have tried them in the rain
I have tried them out the door
I have tried them in a store
I have tried them at the docs
I have tried them in my futile attempts at being a jock.
I have tried them in the chair
I have tried them on a date
I have tried them after lunch
I have tried them in a crunch
I have tried them in the dark
I have tried them here and there
I have tried them everywhere.
I do not like those hypo jams
I do not like them, Sam I Am!
I will try the tabs and ham
Maybe you got a bad bunch from CamAm...
Say! You are right
This combo, it is way too light.
We will get the real stuff then,
Repeat the whole darn book again.
Good one, Heidi!
ReplyDeleteThat was great, Heidi!

Yeah, those green ones are rotten. I laughed out loud at "petrify potential mates!" They kinda get that glazed, deer-in-the-headlights look, don't they?
