Teeth


That day we didn't
Lose our teeth;
You did.
But you don't feel the pain yet;
It only starts when we're gone.

Short, new, fresh, and witty, like a lively kitten.

It has a juvenile quality to it, but this playfulness adds life to it and fits such a subject reminiscent of childhood and its problems.

It is strongly redundant, though, seen in the light of "Vomit".
