Four Reasons This Month Is Half "Dedicated" To My Dentist

________________________________________________________________________________________________

When this 
"three-year-old" 
patient told his
 Egyptian dentist
his nickname for
the Doctor was GOD,
the dentist laughed
 
At that time,
he introduced me to
Fixodent
and I have followed 
his instructions
religiously
I could not be happier
with the results
despite the fact 
that this
"chain-smoker"
still has issues with
the 6-letter-word
beginning with
phl
and rhyming with
gem
 
When I asked if he liked 
American Jazz,
Dr. Rezkella's
exact words were 
"It would be 
impossible not to"
 
He quickly mentioned
Duke Ellington + Louis Armstrong
    then just as quickly
resumed 
the dental work

But 
his next NEW patient
may be the Jordanian
who owns 
exactly 
one block away
from his office
 
I qualify
the fourth reason 
because my 
Jordanian friend
"hates music"
of all kinds

By necessity,
the first comment below
is mine
but feel free
to add to it

  1. This GodFather of Math refers to himself
    as a "three-year-old" because I am actually seventy-five
    years of age.
    Since 75 = 25 x 3 ... I have the equivalent
    of twenty-five inner three-year-old
