Temporary Tattoos

unshaken by the dreams of permanence which bubble within the hearts & minds of those that place sentimental nothings all over themselves, the temporary tattooed are those that know full well nothing is meant to last & like the makers of automobiles who at first made cars that would last a lifetime changed up their tune, pumping out intentionally flawed cars which would inevitably break down & need to be fixed or tossed away for a new one (with the same problems), a temporary tattooed person has no illusions where the sentimentality of the moment is concerned, for the designs are mass produced, clichéd & faulty, breaking apart in the sunlight & washed away by showering off the dirt--- far too much like human relationships.
