Tooth brush Magpie Tales#20


Lying there heart thumping.

Light blazing in her eyes.

Hands over her,

Needle gleaming.

Pain pain!

Grinding and pulling,

Hands gloved and huge.

In her mouth

Pulling hard... tooth out.

Rinsing, spitting

Blood, red blood.

The folly of not,

Not using that brush.
