Driving standard
Type 1 Diabetes
A healthy pancreas
Is like a transmission
Seamlessly shifting gears
In type 2 diabetics
Wear and tear
Causes clunks and issues
In type 1 diabetics
We have none
We’re driving standard
Beginners
Learning the flow
Of their motor
Choking and stalling
Learning to anticipate
Difficult hills
Even with experience
Abrubt stops and starts
Make for a jerky ride
