The "flipper" hides the space
Where a tooth lost its place,
My smile is complete
A veritable photo feat,
The flipper goes in
The flipper goes out
My persona changes
Without a doubt,
Master of disguises
This little flipper can be
My reflection
Does not even recognize me.

Author's Note: The missing tooth is Bugs Bunny's front right tooth. You can envision the difference a dental flipper makes in appearance for those situations where others do not expect someone to have a missing front tooth.
