Pain
Lie back, relax, do not fight me
no, do not scream or even cry
it will be over soon you will see
now open wide, no, no much wider
Trembling, she did as she was told
feeling him close leaning over her
aching from being forced to open so wide
wishing with all her might that it was done
Hold still now, I will done in a minute
as he leaned over her tugging so hard
at last it gave up its grip and popped out
the awful tooth that had caused such pain
