Written in response to Amy’s post at DiabetesMine<\/a>:<\/p>\n

And my thoughts
become like
poetry which is
to say French-
dipped in an illogic
each line gasping
grasping for its
its what is it its
antecedent
pronouns bereaved
sense sticks on
my tongue drawn\u00a0like
glycerol through a
syringe blink and a magic-
eye puzzle world
skips that was
a moment blood
sucked dry beats
at the walls
slow like thrum thrum
pray pray for
ten minutes further
my time brittle
and wasted forgotten
by all but my
microvascular complications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
