| The dentist asks me questions |
| With all their gear inside my mouth |
| Cuz they know if I respond |
| I’ll get scraped and I cannot swallow |
| My eagerness to please |
| And keep my jaw agape |
| My surrogate wouldn’t care either way |
| She’s got thick, thick hide |
| She likes some gear in her bite |
| I first found her on 495 |
| On the shoulder, there she lay |
| Her chest had ‘firestone' engraved |
| I knelt to check for a pulse in her wrist |
| Only to be met with a straight barbell |
| That wet the back of my neck |
| As she put her jaw around my throat for a kiss |
| «Is this how one makes friends?» I ask myself |
| (I don’t know) |
| The couple on the floor below |
| Skirmish verbally |
| They do this constantly |
| It’s 1 am and I cannot swallow my eagerness to please |
| And tell them to let me sleep |
| When the wife eventually peels out |
| Like a wagon in mud |
| Her Geo Metro leaving behind an acrid cloud of dust |
| My surrogate crawls down the steps |
| To ask the husband what’s up |
| So she’s fawning in the foyer |
| Then she’s fawning on the memory foam |
| Then I hear the new couple on the floor below me |
| Their reverberating moans |
| When the night is spent |
| My surrogate comes back |
| She tells me how it went |
| And we exchange a laugh |
| ‘Just don’t forget who |
| Took you off the side of 495' I tease |
| She playfully flashes her barbell at me |
