Teeth.



Teeth.

You get wash early in the morning
and be ready to obey your duty.
You get wash at least twice in a day
to avoid the cavity.

You are hard and delirious.
Always work unitedly.
When one of you is worn out,
we find your lack of faculty.

If you aren't kept fresh and tidy,
you emit foul smell.
Then if you are exposed,
you creat hell.

you crash crumbs
like sharp knife.
You are mortal
and have short span of life.
