Dentist Appointment
Sunk back
almost
comfortable
stretched out
as an afternoon hush
hovers like a warm blanket
Lots of time before
my dentist appointment
feels great to sit incognito
get a bit of needed shuteye
in a corner of the waiting room
Suddenly
a different silence stirs
one I can only assume
follows the calling
of my name
as I jump to attention
all eyes are on me
Darn…
Already my turn
