The Dentist - (Read Aloud)

Dentist reception. Leather bench
Free pens. Metal-edged coffee table
Sore teeth.
Ether stench.
Stretched beneath the pendulum beam
Gleaming steel, latex fingers
Search clenched teeth.
Probe the
Holes. Needles secrete
Anaesthetic. Reflex – tongue jerks
Copper taste. Fluoride disguise
Watering eyes
Pathetic.
