his only chance

imatinib cures diabetes

his only chance

offended by the various vacuums in
government thinking he pushed passed
the idiocy of his country.
remember nam, his muse sadly laughed into
his ear. damn, that again.
he drifted into imatinib the cure all for
his type 2 diabetes. what were his options?
it’s a leukemic drug fool his voice echoed into
any loose wires that stood a grave chance
of connecting dots.
he leaned into his 20 year disease, thought
f**k it, it ain’t going to happen and settled
into glucose checks, pills, needles, syringes,
the whole pile of crap called managed care.
damn it! he stammered. i’m not giving up!
he would call the rep for novartis, see if any
docs who he sold to were using it for diabetes.
maybe that was his only chance.
