i wish i was at recess.
one night while living at school
lauren thought she'd be cool
she took out some candy
which she thought was dandy
stale twizzlers; but they made her drool
in this candy her teeth took a bite
which immediately gave her a fright
she swallowed the goo
and her filling too!
the pain was quite far from light.
to the dentist she'll go today
even though she's tried to stay away
he'll take out his drill
(ugh, what a pill!)
while on the chair, helpless, she'll lay.
lauren does not like the drill
it does not give her a thrill.
she dreads it so much
she'd rather drive on the hutch
than have the pit get it's fill!
.......
sorry.
......
off to the dentist i go.

EDITED at 7:01 pm TO SAY:
Upon returning from the dentist, I feel it important for me to share with you the outcome of my trip to the dentist... in script form.
LAUREN is sitting in the dentist chair with a paper apron on. She is looking out the window.
DR. MALEKI enters wearing a purple polo shirt tucked into very stylish grey pants that were most likely purchased at express.
DR. MALEKI: Hello Darlin', what seems to be the problem?
LAUREN: A filling fell out.
DR. MALEKI: How'd that happen?
LAUREN: A stale twizzler.
DR. MALEKI: Red or black?
LAUREN: Red.
DR. MALEKI: Do you like the black kind?
LAUREN: Not really.
DR. MALEKI: That's good for my records.
DR. MALEKI pauses to look at LAUREN'S x-rays, which are on the light-up-x-ray-illumination board.
He winces and points to her wisdom teeth.
DR. MALEKI: Yikes.
LAUREN: Yeah... I might get them out this summer, depending on whether or not I come home for the summer.
DR. MALEKI makes a face that says "Sucks for you"
DR. MALEKI: Brave. Anyway, open up.
LAUREN opens her mouth, DR. MALEKI looks inside.
DR. MALEKI: What makes you think you lost a filling?
LAUREN: Well, I bit into a stale twizzler and got a sharp pain that was sensitive to cold, sweet, ...
DR. MALEKI begins to poke at LAUREN's teeth was that pokey thing dentists have.
DR. MALEKI: Well, I'm poking everything and... I don't see anywhere where a filling would be missing... and I don't see any signs of decay... looks like you might have just bruised your tooth. Same as the kind of bruise you get when someone, ya know, punches you in the arm.
DR. MALEKI punches LAUREN in the arm.
Enter DENTAL HYGENTIST, a jolly African American woman who might be a grown-up version of Denise from Full House.
DENTAL HYGENTIST: See! You're just crazy!
DENTAL HYGENTIST removes the apron from LAUREN.
LAUREN: Yeah, I guess...
DR. MALEKI: Yeah, there's a psychiatrist down the hall, in suite 213... maybe you should go there. Just kidding, have a nice day.
DR. MALEKI and DENTAL HYGENTIST laugh. LAUREN exits.
