Hiya, I interpreted the prompt as word association, I wanted to attempt the format, but be a bit less obscure.
So here’s my attempt:
Speaking Spicule
Deep slumber
along the gum line
It blankets itself
in pink
Bones protrude
peek to
see
Salivating sea
pry open
drain
Rain from
caves that
remain un-healed
Open
to interpretation
Bones
glow white
misrepresentation
Exiting sea
does not
mean smile
Only
the allowance to
speak
After while
bones grow
wide grow
sharp
Part
tides the
tongue punished
For rest
For wicked
For ultimate
Test
of strength
and mirror
If tongue
and wit
cut
like
white
bone hiding
beneath the gum line
If wisdom
could extract
from salt
maybe
Teeth
could smile
after
all
