the medical seminar with coffee

it used
to be a lively conversation
about sports
or women,
books and movies,
fun things,
but now,
it's about a doctors
appointment.
you see the old men
at the coffee
shop
pulling up their pant
legs,
or rolling
down their sleeves,
pointing at various
ailments and
mysterious lesions.
they ramble on
about
prescriptions 
and the differences
between number one 
and number two
diabetes.
