Oral hygeine from a Biblical perspective.
Joseph

my favorite incisor
(in all the world)
is inset, and shorter
than most;
stained with coffee,
flavored by tobacco -
he stands out
in the coating i made
                                                 
i flaunt him in smiles
(he has never known a cavity -
not one!)
                                                 
i brush him separately,
secretly preferring him over the others

- i hope his brothers behave themselves
