A tooth! my first!
exclaimed the small boy
Eyes filled with tears
of pure simple joy
He ran to his mom
clutching it tight
and burst in the room
squealing with delight.
Many questions he asked
one after another
about the tooth fairy
perplexing his mother
She listened intently
with him on her knee
"write them all down
for the fairy to see"
The boy set to his task
with paper and pen
and slowly wondered
where to begin
"Where are you from?"
"What do you do with the tooth?"
"How do you fly?"
Please tell me the truth
With the letter all done
he placed it under his pillow
then slid into bed
just like a minnow
He fell fast asleep
dreaming his dreams
and awoke the next morning
with a jubilant scream
A reply he did find
under his head
He opened it fast
to see what it said
"A time long ago
there was a boy just like you
who saved us from tragedy
when humans were new"
"Great battles were fought
with creatures of all kind
and magic was something
quite easy to find"
"But humans grew old
and got very greedy
then corrupted themselves
into something quite needy"
"Power corrupts
unless you're quite wise
We could all see the signs
no more light in their eyes"
"They tricked us quite often
and hunted us down
stealing our magic
for their own crowns"
Centaurs and Fairies
Dragons and Elves
Among many others
started saving themselves"
"We learned how to hide
here in plain sight
by changing our vibration
so as not to fight"
"Then a spark in the dark
flashed bright and true
and we knew in that instance
just what to do"
"A child was born
innocent and pure
with him knowing
He was our savior"
"A secret he hid
within his own tooth
a secret of magic
the heart has in youth"
"Magic that courses
through children like you
who understand love
in all of it's hue's"
"The teeth we collect
and crush into powder
to Help us retain
our magical power"
"For magic is something
that comes from within
of pureness and love
but not evil or sin"
"A warning there is
and hear it you must
If you force a tooth out
it will turn to rust"
"Powder from teeth
forced out before ready
corrupt the pure magic
making it unsteady"
"This kind of magic
creates creatures not nice
Like goblins and trolls
so always think twice"
"Now let me be clear
about all that I've said
Feel with your heart
and not with your head"
"Face and embrace
The beauty of you
Believe in the magic
and let it accrue"

They said they wanted to take the molars of
Those fleeing danger that they had escaped
By the skin of
Then leave the reward of sanctuary beneath their pillow whilst they slept
As if they weren't having trouble enough already
With where to rest their weary heads
They said the rewards were many
And wanted to make completely certain
They weren’t being too generous
Because giving gifts gives rise to greed
So they decided to take the teeth
And ensure those safety seekers
Knew exactly what being bitten means
And those who sought for something more?
Those bitten by these charitable actions as much by war
Their wounds didn't heal
And they found sores on weary feet
To find they had grown hungry mouths there too
The shoes that ate the distance beneath their step
Yielding bite marks as footprints and yet
They stored safety as a promise
In between records and held up blue plaques aloft
That said "I was not born here on this date
But I belong here" and I've history and a home to make
But for all the shiny pennies that they saved up in a jar
The princess dentists could still feel each
Generous donation, milky beneath their mattress
And each asylum seeker kept them up
And we clean teethed few, who always knew to brush
For three minutes before bed
Lucky by grace of birth, seas and a few miles more
Looked at these dentists questioning
but they shook their head
Warned us of the toothache of their seeming sweetness
So tell us about dental hygiene
how to floss lies from our gums
or else wait for all our teeth to fall out
Have them taken from beneath our pillows
Where we had gracefully saved them like we were told to
Constructed into fortresses
Utilized the tooth extraction cotton buds
as comforting ear plugs and pulled the wool over our eyes
Let’s wait until our retirement
Till we realise the Toothfairy wants our bones
Not just our molars
and we pushed away those who only needed
The chance of rest and the chance of somewhere
new and safe to show us how to smile
So brush your teeth tonight
And be thankful
you will never know that those who turn away from you
Will do so, because your breath
Still stinks of all the **** you so readily eat.

THE TOOTH FAIRY...
The tooth fairy knows
When you loose that tooth
BUT
HOW WILL THE TOOTH FAIRY KNOW?
When my granddaughter
Lost her tooth
It was at Barry Bagels
With her other grandma
In the bathroom.
Dropped it
Couldn't find it
Grandma panicked
Granddaughter panicked
HOW WILL THE TOOTH FAIRY KNOW?
So home without a tooth
Sad granddaughter, sad grandma...
BUT
Her mommy saved the day...
A note under the pillow
From the tooth fairy
Dear Jenson
My tooth fairy friend found your tooth
And ask me to deliver your $ reward
With a little fairy dust added
And everyone was happy.
BUT
HOW DID THAT TOOTH FAIRY KNOW?
Wink wink....
