So, I’d been feeling the pain
it got to a point
that I had to look up for possibilities
of seeing dentists!
As usual,
I procrastinated!
Why would I remove a tooth,
after all, I’m just a minor!
Thoughts of how many
bones
meats
bottle tops
medications
even papers
that molar had assisted
me with
I just couldn’t let go!
It got to a point
I wasn’t able to munch cashew nuts
feeling I was chewing the beloved tooth!
Googling dentists near me,
I found one
Seven hundred meters away
Calling him
I booked an appointment
for last Sunday!
Like everything Canadian,
the clinic is just a
WOW!
By my special circumstances,
the doctor informed me
my bill is on the government!
The treatment commenced
with an x-ray of the tooth!
It was then decided,
with my written consent
the molar
had to go!
Losing a part of one’s body
although comfortable
translatese
to the imminent
appointment
for all living things!
