Drink down


“a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down.”

but peaches don’t grow everywhere.

Caster oil has the opposite effect 

when you drink it down

I was hospitalized 

over Fourth of July weekend 2025

 for being too sweet

My bgl was 499

They wouldn’t let me eat anything 

but insulin for the first two days!

I couldn’t stop peeing!

Every ten minutes a nurse

Some males

Some females

All with two urinals a piece 

I always filled both.

On the third day it went 

To every fifteen minutes and they

 let me have a cheese omelet


best meal I’ve had in years!

Three cheers for hospital food.

A nice cognac and a good ice cream 

would have been better though.
