Dear Sir –

I thought the better
of sending you this letter
as you might imagine why -

It seems my concern
as you soon will learn
requires an urgent reply –

I paid a visit
or two, now is it
and gave you a mighty sum –

and yet my mouth
is not the same somehow
and I'm feeling rather dumb –

I can be forgetful
but this has made me fitful
and my patience is wearing thin –

My good sense of taste
has been proven a waste
without my trademark grin –

For you see dear sir
my speech is a slur
and the result really bites –

When I was last seen
I asked you to clean,
not remove my pearly whites.
