What All Dentists Do

What All Dentists Do Writing poetry is like a lot of therapy Looking for equivalence and parity Matching things together so you can see Best way things should eventually be Do you know what all dentists do? Make sure your teeth are not askew Always strong and straight as can be Not looking like face had a lobotomy Last time I had looked in my lunch A card in it had a crooked punch Opened mouth so dentist could see underneath You've been taking amazing care of your teeth At various times have been having a vigil Worrying about affects which are residual Should it be I who is always blamed? Because my gums have become inflamed While on long walk looked for a eulogy And another weird thought came to me If my teeth are crooked and out of line Are they really actually mine all mine

Who in the world would have thought of something like this. It must be none other than Jim Horn.
