Shout Out to Who I’m Becoming

Type 2 diabetes.  How many of you in here
have type 2 diabetes, show of hands?  Did
you know that you can be diabetic for years
and then one day, poof!, you’re no longer

diabetic?  How about that?  Oh, I have a walk-in 
closet at my new apartment.  How many of you, 
you know, as a child....?  How many of you dreamt of 
having a walk-in closet?  I know I didn’t.  But boy,

was that ever a sort of merit badge of wealth we 
were taught by the sitcoms in the days of our youth, 
am I right?  I now can say, proudly and loudly, that
I have a second bedroom in the lovely apartment 

in which I live.  Crazy!  That’s crazy y’all.  And pimp
daddies!  Pimp!  Daddies!    Now don’t you have it
made in the shade?  You know I’m not kidding!
Let’s hear it for all of you pimps out there,

show of hands, we’re all friends, now come on,
seriously, raise 
’em up you fabulous pimps.  We
can complain about each day until our mouths
bleed, can we not?  I mean, there’s an immeasurable

amount of bitching we can do.  But God is most definitely 
watching over us, is he not?  And that is no laughing matter, 
my friends.          That is the real deal.
