Sean Kelly Poet Light Verse

Footle..Visit To the Dentist.

The fear
In here ..
                  The chair
                  "Don't care "..
                                              Sore gum
                                              Lip numb..
                                                                " MUST DRILL
                                                                  THEN FILL " ..
                                                                                        " Less speed
                                                                                          I'll  bleed " ..
                                                                                                                Preserve
                                                                                                                Your  nerve ..
"I've bled"
Jaw dead ..
                  " RINSE PLEASE"
                    Weak knees ..
                                             The bill
                                             Plus pill ..
                                                               Can't eat
                                                              No teeth ..
                                                                                    Unchewed
                                                                                    Soft food ..
Can't talk
Slow walk
                    Perchance
                    Soiled pants ?..
                                            Mistake
                                            Toothache  !!.....
footle-note ..
The author would like to confirm that no deaths occured , during the creation of this piece. All 
suffering was kept to a minimum,as the surgery was sound-proofed .Pain and suffering , 
caused to waiting patients , was due to being forced to read 3yr old mags. Seemingly the 
news was less dire back then.All enamel&blood stained swabs were dumped in the 
appropriate utensils,as per Geneva Convention(section ix, site xxxiv).The cleansing of soiled 
underwear took place ,under supervision, with enviroment friendly detrgents & all offending 
materials disposed of , in accordance with the KyotoAgreement(section mlx11).
Must dash !! , as I have to visit that other sadist, the vet ,with our cat.He is due for the snips! 
( the cat , not the vet ).. Here Tom..Pshhhwshhh ..

Laurie Ginn March 20, 2009 at 5:28 AM Sean Kelly you'd better back off or I'll put sugar in your back pocket in hopes of a horse nip on da butt! Besides I expressed that view on everyone else's poems not mine....mine are much too impressive to limit

Vince Suzadail Jr. March 19, 2009 at 5:22 PM Does that hurt? NO, doctor. Jumping three feet in the air and screaming at the top of my lungs is just part of my exercise regime. I think my dentist's favorite song is "I'll Never Smile Again." Hey. Sean, this was a great footle collection, fun read. Vince
