A boy of
Teeth so big as if with secrets
That two lips could not keep together
Teeth so long
They made the day of all kids that met them
You can imagine the relief of the little boy
When Babylon finally fell
When Mother Nature fired those clowns
Oh what joy!
Those incisors have fallen
But in their place
Things have grown over the years
Making me a source of laughter
Sometimes for reasons I’m proud
Sometimes for reasons I’m ashamed
But I’ve come to realize, that
The shame is where the biggest fame is
