Uppers are gone, still though got me lowers...


Poem Artwork

Ain’t got no upper teef,

Cain’t spell very well t’nite,

No chewin’ so pablum on the menu,

Applesauce, ice cream & oatmeal,

You should have my tongue,

And in my mouth, the stitches, feel…

 

My upper lip feels like it’s been assaulted,

My upper inside doesn’t feel too bad,

My lower teethies are still there, by default,

The surgeon felt to keep them will in the end make me glad…

 

So now how long will it take to get my new uppers,

So I can be a bit happy to eat solid suppers,

Still have a minor bit of bleeding,

Though maybe that is too much info for this reading…J

Sounds like you lost a good friend. But when you're mechanical friend comes along you will be happy chewing your way through everything, including that shoe leather, the only thing you can afford to eat except the dog food, and dog is not on your diet.

Oh, my gosh. That applesauce and oatmeal are going be tasty this morning, and what a treat with ice cream. Too bad you guys don't have Blue Bell up there.
It will all be worth it.

WOW! The legendary Jersey Devil with no teeth - people living around the Pine Barrens will sleep a little better tonight.

PS: Don't try to chew on any Road Kill for awhile.

Wow I'm glad I'm not in your condition. But in the end a steak will taste good when you can chew it.
