Rotten Teeth
There is no calm inside me, no serenity no silence.—Gabriel Gadfly, “Teething.”

It’s all romanticism, nonsense, rottenness, art.—Ivan Turgenev, Fathers and Sons
My teeth used to
Be perfect like shiny
And new.
Such a bright smile
For a fat girl with no tiny
Waist to fit a 6.
I had treats grow in my mouth
Like a chocolate garden
That threw up sprinkles.
I turned my throat into a graveyard,
Teeth into its killer and the water
Beneath me it's heaven and
Savior.
I can still smell it on my hands,
See the bones make appearance,
I stop again and start again
To rid what lives inside
My stomach.
I say hello and goodbye.
I turned my body into graveyard
But as long as I’m becoming
Skinny…
I’ll be fine. Right?
As I become rotten
Teeth.
