​The thief behind our teeth.

Behind my teeth sits a prisoner in sentence, their crime was deception.

Many truths had been robbed by this thief, too many sentences ended before they knew the solace of a caring ear.

This thief was skilled in counterfeiting, lies were his game, he’d weave doubt into trembling lips then kidnap the truth for ransom.

A terrible person indeed, the one behind these teeth, once sold a lie for a fortune or two, handing out promises for me and for you.

Too long had this burglar been running amuck, behind these bars of whites he stuck, a plaque feeding on deceit, cavities dug at the little white teeth.

To whom must I turn this criminal to?

What punishment should be faced for housing this fugitive?

A jury of pearly whites smiled silently in unison, for they knew better than to speak—they too were familiar—with this thief, that lives behind our teeth.
