Something to take your mind off it

Patient in the dentist's chair,
My mind goes wandering everywhere
And opens story-doors to find
Intriguing recipes behind.

Helpless in the dentist's room,
Forgotten characters resume
Their journey through my dizzy head,
Like memories of the widely-read.

Deafened by the dentist's drill,
I murmur of my own freewill
And metaphors anaesthetise
As I lie back and close my eyes.
