move your tongue to the left

open
wide, she says, masked
in blue,
hat and plastic
gloves on,
open wide and slide
your tongue
to the left,
please while i stick
this cardboard
gizmo
into your mouth,
we want to take a good look
at this one
tooth
in the back,
then she leaves the room.
i guess she's scared
of radiation too.
