I'm just back from the dentist and my jaw is very numb So if I were to speak aloud it surely would sound dumb Articulating clearly is a challenge at this time I'm glad I can just type this up and let you READ the rhyme.
My dentist is a gentle sort and listens when I squawk She stopped her drilling when I indicated we should talk She gave another set of shots when I said "Pretty Please" (It takes 3 times the normal dose to put me at my ease)
This make for visit number 6 if I have counted right 2 more to go (or maybe 3) and I'll regain my bite The money I had set aside to spend this coming year On fun consumer goods is gone (and next year's too, I fear)
Extraction via surgery meant no ConFlikt was seen And Sunday ConSonance was lost to pills that had codeine It seems that age is catching up and making things break down It isn't just a mighty king that gets to wear a crown
So though your mood is rather low, I'd ask "Are you in pain?" That tends to take the number one position in my brain The dull and bleak and boring things get shoved far down my list (I won't enumerate them all - I think you get the gist.)
