Flossing Venom

Slide the sticky venom
from your mouth
See how it catches
so easily
to pulled strings...

venom puppets
growing between my teeth...

Sneaky bastards
like to hide in tight places...
Between clean teeth
Laid out beneath my pillow
Looking to steal change...

Venom puppets
Hide in cavities
Beneath my sleeping head...
