Molar Mistreatment

Molar Mistreatment
by Robert Paul Gass
The hollow formed in tooth or root erodes
The nerves and channels pain to mouth with stress
As meals affect enamel food corrodes
Dentition clearing crowns from gums of mess.
The canals painful flow to flesh in brain
And shelter tumors clinging tapped to numb
For bridges linking astral kin to pain
And seeking mind of foe as dead or dumb.
The split from tumors forces drainage down
And imps intrude to wield the pain with speech
As voices shrill with jabber seek to drown
Or failing yell with billow seeking breach.
The gnawing slowly takes apart the flesh
Of jabberwocky shedding painful mesh.
