The tooth was not chipped

but the old Japanese dentist

knew more than most

about the rough edges

between the buckles

and linguals of life

 

“Yah, you know, the tongue

is such a curious thing,”

he frowns,

drilling the tooth in question

smooth

 

“It wants to find out everything

within its reach”

 

And here I thought

my tongue was only

curious about you
