Leeches

Greg Lyons

A leech floats along a pond
like a man’s flaccid penis
who is enjoying a hot bath
and the sight of his member
poising. A leech, though,
has circular saw teeth, genetic
hardware for creating instant
glory holes. Its spit and mucus
slobbering—sticky and wispy
like Jell-O shots—seals out
any feeling as each frill
of its head distends and
ebbs. Gulp. Gulp.


Greg Lyons earned his MFA from the University of Alaska Fairbanks under Derick Burleson and Amber Flora Thomas. He currently teaches and writes in Oakland.
