Tattoo
The needle rips and tears
vibrations through bone
pulsating pain on ribs
endured alone
Four hours of gritted teeth
the painful price of novelty
slow dips of black ink
paralysed...
A night terror atop of me
An obscure French artists character
now adorns my side
she'll fade and wither with me
she'll still be there when I die
Living in the moment
a mosquito in the breeze
skin like lizards when we're all sixty
the juice is worth the squeeze
