Ode TO Mouthwash

One day at the dentist

And I knew

I want to be mouthwash

I’ll get rid of your gingivitis

I’ll risk backwash

I’ll risk spity mouth

I’ll refresh your stenchy mouth

I’m dressed up in green and blue liquid

I’m the foamy stuff just for you

I’ll risk bad breath

Just let me be mouthwash.

Rushing down the drain

As I look back and see you smiling back at yourself

While I remain rushing

More wet than dry

You can turn me from liquid to foam

Just trust me

I want to be Scope

I want to be Act

I was born to be mouthwash
