Dents du Bonheur

                      Gat-tothed I was, and that bicam me weel...

                                                          

                                                            Geoffrey Chaucer


In the end what is there of span
in the continuity of human teeth
save fair smile of Venus,
gapped and incisive:

12345678  87654321

whereat precessions
running left and right
delight one in the other
across an interval of air?
