Painful Impacted Wisdom Tooth
Guaranteed medical haze for the next few days
Internalising my pain zombifying my brain
Dreams of frying chicken in the rain
And jerking fish on a plane
Things just make no sense
Drooling blood was intense
My pillow case was red
Sensation in my jaw was dead
My speech was slurred
As well as my vision being blurred
It was a struggle to hear every single word
Mouth filled with gauze
To slow the bleeding is its cause
If I keep rinsing with saline
In time i’m sure I will feel fine
Not being able to eat hot food
Really puts me in a bad mood
Having to drink from a straw
Makes me feel so flawed
Watching everyone else eat normally
Leaves me in awe
I see things in slow motion
As I motion slowly towards my medication
Drowsiness ensues and sleep is my final destination
You think this is fun?
This is only day one!
