Tattoo Versus Fine Art

Tattoos, the rage, are not a fine art, Not meant to hang on a gallery wall, Black and white traditional, to sharp tribal plans, Not huge, just simple and small, You see, in galleries of oils and acrylic artists, Paints are intricate, and tell a whole tale, And these painted pieces are often worth heaps, Often they’re there for a sale, But tattoos have a meaning that belongs to that person, Something no one else knows, And often the person won’t share this perception, Hiding it under their clothes, Because tattoos are for personal announcements, A permanent parade of their soul, Not for sale to the public, like a fine art collection, Tattoos help the person feel whole.
