given the chance
I spotlight the big picture: out
—let’s not look at me—
unsure what to say
in the dental chair
my mouth wide with cavities
wondering if my teeth will shatter
tender in the too-bright light
crumbling in uncertainty
[kind words, some points, but also, else:
what would make you happy and what would make it better?
(answers not apparent)]
