Oral Hygiene
I take a toothbrush
and wet it with holy water
Like a rag soaked in gasoline
the brush begins to burn
The bristles burn on and on
near the profane water tap
I take the flaming brush
and one by one I clean my teeth
If the fire on the brush burns out
we’ll suddenly all burn out
I pray it keeps on burning
and frees my speech from sin
With my mouth full of ashes I’ll
be able to smile at the Almighty
