Hanging by a thread
most days
that's me.
sometimes
it's my
imaginary
doggie gone
walking.
we call her
Creativity.
she's a needle-
nose-plier
on the prowl
in the salvage-
yard on the
industrial
North-side
where nailed
sheet-metal
siding dangles
and substrate-
plywood boards
my would-be
windows-
to-the-world.
I call that
Sleep...

Crest Has Been Shown to Be an Effective Decay-Preventative Dentifrice That Can Be of Significant Value When Used in a Conscientious Program
Each of my teeth
Is hanging by a thread
On top and underneath
Each is dangling from my head
When windy they tintinnabulate
Chiming with chagrin
People with noses abdicate
From the halitosis downwind
I dangle them in chlorine
To one day prepare
For oral hygiene
And regular professional care
