Demetria Blouin Poem
An incurable condition: Type 1 diabetes
Potentially fatal hypoglycemia- low blood sugar
Surprise onset, no forewarning, telltale symptoms absent
Abruptly overthrowing any semblance of cerebral control
Potentially fatal hypoglycemia- low blood sugar
Life saving glucose has been wiped out of the bloodstream
Abruptly overthrowing any semblance of cerebral control
Everyday tasks, so easy to execute, now impossible to perform
Life saving glucose has been wiped out of the bloodstream
The body breaking down without its required energy supply
Everyday tasks, so easy to execute, now impossible to perform
Consciousness depleted; extinction appearing to be the inescapable finale.
The body breaking down without its required energy supply
Yet out of the darkness comes life saving sweetness
Consciousness depleted; extinction appearing to be the inescapable finale
But resurrection by sugar has allotted another chance at existence

Soft kiss of Autumn
On youth's cheek
Awaits Winter's chill
Winter is here
Young enjoyment forms playful smiles
Chilled happiness shared

Demetria Blouin Poem
We are a perfectly mismatched set.
We share contradictory alliances in Peace
We conquer complimentary foes in War
You quell the unnerving anxiety that haunts me
And I haunt the quelling worry that unnerves you.
My emotional lows keep your mental highs grounded, well-balanced, and sane
While your emotional ups grant my mental downs the conviction, confidence and trust needed to take flight.
.
May the discrepancies we harmonize bring the peculiarities identified by our inner circle
because they misunderstand
the eccentricities that keep us identically opposite.
We will thrive in eternal impermanence, blissful in our gloom,
satisfied with our greed
We are a perfectly mismatched set
