Tattoo

by enfant du tordu chagrin   Sep 7, 2007


Silver needle driving deeper,
Ink expanding like a creeper,
Hints of pain flirt with sense,
Body relaxed, never tense,
Bursts of fire dance on nerves,
As with flourish artist swerves,
Slowly growing, taking shape
Mind reeling, mouth agape
As artists vision is revealed
Eternally, on skin soon healed

Piece of rubbish, I know, will be edited repeatedly, just thought I'd get basics down while in head.

    [As artists vision is revealed

    Different approach to a tattoo, I shall use it on my parents :D

    But about the poem;

    The flow is what caught me. The short sentences make it exceptional to read. My favourite type of poetry is when the writer uses short, effective sentences.

    You took a simple idea & Made it your own.
    So well done. :]
