Heartbreaking! If Brian is a real person, I hope he finds relief very soon. I love how poetically you told us about his condition, which is, in fact, our human condition.

Makes me so sad. I like the surprise of this, how the title and mention of teeth at the beginning just get us going... And then the extraction is larger and a wish, a sad wish.

That’s wonderful & it resonates with me greatly. I have to remind myself that thoughts are just thoughts - & it can be hard to give them space. I love your listing of distractions & safe habits which I also relate to -
I read & reread this poem.

I love this--the image and how everything around is plastic, including the balloon but the child is still full of wonder and imagination. Lovely.

I repeat myself, life is a mother fucker.

I find one great thing about aging, people expect me to shake my fist.
