Ah, my teeth
The strongest part
Held in place
By delicate flesh

To care for you,
carefully thoroughly lovingly
Protects me from you
Protects you from me,
With my gums' power
To rot you
Right out of my head!

Delicate balance
Joyful ritual
Silly dance
Of brushing flossing
Each tooth round and smooth
Enjoying my power
Appreciating yours

Ah, my teeth
Let's stick together forever!
Ah, the end of the page
This is all for now, dear teeth

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
