American Teeth

Grandmother! What big teeth you have…

Illusion in enamel.
A flashing unreality
beneath exceptional eyes.
A paralyzing perfection
that can bite deep.
An invitation of
privileged fangs.
Orthodontic orthodoxy
set to chomp the
asses of the unwary.
A mouth that opens
to swallow the world,
and smiles a smile
all the while.
