Tooth extractions -- not so much the cracking of bones but the sound, grind,
of pulling, force of pulling as though you're losing a piece of your body.
You are. Laughing Gas? No matter. Never again.

Erin, unconcerned about tangy breath, even less resolute about the inclusion
of apostrophes, constructs a sentence so, so...well anyway it seems she's
got a small stomach because she can't take a whole jar of Polski Olorki
Polish style pickled cucumbers; which concerns me somehow because it sounds
like there's more than one cucumber in the jar and that just seems
impossible...I mean how big is the jar, how big are the cucumbers, have I
got to thirty one words yet...not that I care really, all I'm really
concerned about is the way the tip of my tongue delves into this seemingly
enormous cavity that the dentist says will heal itself, but which, some
seven hours later, still tastes of blood and I can actually feel the
hole...have you seen the size dental roots, I mean turn them upside down and
Nosferatu would be jealous...there they were, bloody, forlorn, lying on his
tray anongst the instruments and what I remember most isn't the cracking
sound but the way the dental assistant held onto my hand...was it worse for
her?
