FREE OF WISDOM


FREE OF WISDOM


The violent thunder, the throbbing roar,
The miserable maelstrom caused by this aching jaw.
Though tooth be gone, reddened gums so sore,
Victim to the dentists bidding oh, for eve
 ***
Nowhere to hide, there’s nowhere to run,
No respite from this agony, this is no fun.
The only way out is the bullet from a gun,
To be free of wisdom, a quick jab to stun
***
Painkillers and salt water endlessly swilling,
White-knuckle ride during the root canal drilling.
The cost of this torment, my bank balance killing,
My dentist keeps smiling as his coffers are filling.
