Designs On a Body

Designs on a Body As one weaves wonderful patterns and design All of my body of work could be quite mine Eventually, all will be gallantly copyrighted With much more complexity, I'd be surely delighted. I'll write for all to find no endless hurt and pain Your renderings of the world would surely see, For you may be snoring on your couch as your lane Those fine, imprints you've left plenty there on me. My story starts from the top to bottom's been told Man, you're a kind man as was your father the wizard He laid many illustrious vibrant bright forever bold For nay, he never walked near a wild, unlike lizard. Have you not seen that beauty is so skin deep The eyes may reflect off a shiny mirror of your soul While quite profound your words may pen per sleep For I know that you had hid the irony of the mole. Okay my dear man, I'm standing here quite proud You may, or may not be my all domineering muse For your body sometimes screams quite loud I can honestly say that I truly love my new tattoos.

Hi Theresa! I was going like...oh no...too many tattoos...It's good that I saw your reply to Mark. I echo his sentiments. I neither condemn nor have anythings against people who have these but I would not wish it on me either. You have a well-written poem there, though. hugs!

Hi Kim, glad you stopped by for the read. Yes I really don't see why so many people put them on the body. I feel that we only one body in life. Why wreck it with so many useless contaminants. We should treasure out body with well nourished functions so we can live longer and stronger. Oh oh, I think I started ranting on about useless beatings on our body. So SORRY Kim.... hugs Theresa

Love the poem. Personally I'm not a fan of tattoos, I must admit I just don't "get it".

Neither do I like tattoo's. My friend and I walked passed this tattoo parlor. Some of there many art-forms are so real and life like. To me it is a form of abusing our bodies. I also hate needles, just thinking of it even getting blood work impales me to the very bone. Thanks for leaving your beauty of a comment though.
