A human skull with late stage syphilis. It’s is a sexually transmitted disease caused by bacteria, Treponema palladium, and was first described during the Siege of Naples in 1495. It has three stages: primary, secondary, and tertiary. It’s during the tertiary stage, or the final stage, that bones are damaged and take on a swollen, “moth-eaten” appearance. Tertiary syphilitic lesions begin to appear 2 to 10 years after infection, and attack the cranium and tibia causing disintegration or the thickened formation of new bone.
"Drunk at the matinee" is a collection of candid poetry about stupid shit that we all experience from day to day.
