I love my dentist
He never hurts me
He makes all kinds of
dreadful screeching,
grinding, whirring noises
come out of my mouth
when his fingers go in,
but he never hurts me.
He deadens the spot
he is going to stick the needle in.
And apparently he is generous
with the needle.
I never felt a thing
and I got a droopy face
and a heck of a lisp
to prove it.
I look like I’m having a stroke.
My philtrum is crooked.
Drinking a can of pop
is a one-sided adventure.
My cavity is filled.
In and out in 30 minutes.
I love my dentist.

My animosity toward dentist goes way back to my childhood.
