Then circled back
For a dental scaling
Perhaps an x-ray
There is the maxillary
There is the sinus
There is a silver filling
There is the temperamental exposure
Before you know it
You will be double backed
Then again with another
Beastly
Dinners become easy
When you plan out the days
Wednesday is pizza
Friday is breakfast for dinner
Monday is perhaps pasta
You fill in blank spaces
With silver and food
Then there was that time
Doubled over
Puking into a bucket
Guts and blood and charred animals
Then there was a second date
An appointment for a double dare
Two adults folded in on themselves
Getting into it
Not knowing that visceral scent
Would attract attention
Soon we were eating ourselves
Upton Sinclair is credited
For no apparent reason
His attention to the welfare of workers
Not limited to:
Oasis water coolers
But the poets version
Soft and flowing
Not the least bit Buster Brown
Or Middy
Always a twofer
Which is basically a "two for one"
This is not expanding on what you already know
This is twice what you know
Believing in the bone on bone
With a button in the middle
Or mutton chop
Hacked with chipped stone
Or antique brass clasps
Or lap dances --
These are all self evident
What becomes of them
Is shared tightly
Ensnared
Paired lightly
Figure eighted
Flipped over and given a righteous
What for
