At My New Dentist

I filled in the form
to identify any conditions
that I might have
that would restrict
how they could treat me.
Under heart conditions
I put down 'generosity',
since in a mean world
it is a big defect. Gently,
my dentist asked me to erase it
and initial the crossing out,
because their computer
does not quite yet have
a big enough sense of humour.
