A good and nasty one.

Written in 2020.

I hope you enjoy.

My teeth sit sullen in my jaw,

I iron my clothes, I iron my shirt,

My teeth, they yellow, in my mouth,

I iron my shoes, I iron my socks,

My teeth are rotting, sliding out,

I iron my hands, I iron my feet,

My teeth are gone, I smile still,

I iron my lips, I iron my tongue.

As ever, thanks for reading,

Until next time,
