Her Teeth

Her teeth were so white they stood out about two feet ahead of her face which distracted me from what she was saying. She mustn't think she is beautiful to be tinkering with herself like this, I thought. She is perfectly beautiful but now all I see are those plastic choppers dentists keep on a small glass shelf to diagram problems to their patients. I imagined her large white teeth eating blueberry pie, with black coffee. Anything to tone things down.
