Peace Talks With Dentist

I have an aching tooth,
affecting half my face.
It's throbbing through my ear,
stifling my pace.
Although I brush and floss and rinse
every single day,
I have not seen a dentist
in several thousand days.
They freak me out.
I trust them not,
I try to stay away.
But now that I'm inflamed and sore,
all I can do is pray.
I should have gone in sooner,
I should have let them check,
for tiny growing problems
so I wouldn't be a wreck.
I'm calling the UN.
I'm working on a truce,
I'm willing to meet them halfway
if they bring giggle juice!
