Ta Too

CUT DEEPLY INTO MY FLESH
LET YOUR COLORS MIX 
WITH MY BODY FLUIDS
AND LET YOUR PAIN BE MINE
IN A COOL ONENESS OF DESIRE

EARLY AFRICAN DESIGNS 
OF THE COMING OF AGE
FULL BODY DESIGNS WORN BY JAPANESE
CRIMINALS AND WAR LORDS
THE RED HEARTS OF FAMILY, FRIENDS AND EVENTS OF HONOR
BETTY BOOP AND POPEYE THE SAILOR


GENERATION TO GENERATION
IN THE RITUAL OF INDEPENDENCE AND
OTHERNESS 
EXPRESSING ONESELF IN AN EVENT FOR ALL TIMES
NOT EASY TO FORGET
NOT EASY TO ERASE
