TETRALOGY

By Jason Lingard



i.

A disco ball ghost,

slips into a serpent sea

—sex and salt-flavoured.

 

ii.

Medusa orgy—

Anxiety, shedding skin.

Venom sucked out.

 

iii.

A drop

to the knees.

Viper-smooth face held roughly.

Forked sandpaper tongue.

 

iv.

Men swallowing snakes.

Ejaculation of bites.

 

Throats flower for death.
