Tattoos My Thoughts Poem by Misty Talbot

Tattoo, to mark ones skin for life
Hearts, daggers, flowers or maybe a name
Tattooing for life is my game

The buzz of my machine
The vibrations in my hand
Making a picture
Not just for personal gain

Tattoos are art
That’s what I think
Nothing else matches needles and ink

Your skin is my canvas
Your ideas my brief
Can I have a break you say?
My god what a relief


Purging the soul with pain
Tattoos are my life
Not just personal gain
