Best Tattoos Poems

A two-legged canvass
in crimsons and blues
dragons ginormous
and suchlike tattoos

Diamonds and rare gems 
that shimmer and shine
flowers on long stems 
with sleek strokes and lines

Exciting ones hid
in crannies and nooks
all that's forbid;
condemned by the Book

Exposed on the outside
pleasing to prudes
on out-of-sight hide
erotica and nudes

DELYSIA HENDRICKS...

This old poet's words are dying...
slipping into damp craggy times
though never calling out for help
still reciting-still reciting.
Thoughts exploding from gray volcanic lungs
planting shiny seeds made of          my         ...

Is there any kind of person who is perfect, an example?
Someone that helps every single day should be ample,
Although could even that one be considered perfect?
People aren't perfect, so that's what you would expect.

Status and position, you can be born into it, or find it,
The...

she will tattoo me
too many hickies to count

Having one's person embellished with tattoos is all the rage today.
Used to be that only carousing tars got tattooed in old Mandalay!
They might have an 'Anchor' or 'Mother' tattooed on their chest,
Their ship's name or a naughty quote of which they were obsessed!

As an inquisitive...

I am a shadow of self
Pale pain and waned desire
To tired to continue this rage
The fire in my belly has gone away

This world of black
Upon my health, life and love, did attack
I never spoke the words “I surrender”
Though I should have

My health and drive steadily...

Lately, Everything makes me think of them,

kick-started by that episode LOST with Jack's Thai mistress
who has a knack for reading a person and branding them--
"he walks among us, but he is not one of us--"
on Jack's shoulder forever, a secret in another language.
and I wonder,...

It starts with just one,
Just a small one,
A delicate pinkish shooting star
Chosen painstakingly from the flash on the wall
While a girl with blue hair and a nose ring
Watches disdainfully from behind the counter.

It takes more than one trip
To check out the place
On the south side...

Tattoos at Wal-Mart

Went to Wal-Mart and we were spell-bound
By all the people you would see around
With their tattoos having skin mutilated
And to go back again have always hated.

But according to all of the latest noise
We really don't possibly have a choice
That's when my wife started...

"TATTOOS, PICTURES, JUBILATION AND LOVE"


minutes ago, I received a 
picture from a female I know.
she says she loves me.
she texts:
I'LL SEND IT TO YOU AS LONG 
AS YOU DON'T USE IT AGAINST 
ME.
I agree.
ARE YOU READY?
I text back: I AM.
my notification sounds, 
Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata
plays...

Her favorite color was Green,
Until she turned 17, 
Then she cursed her skin with Red.
Random patterns of lines to others,
A sacred catharsis for herself.

Her blood tattoos made her feel new,
Those symbols became her source of power,
Even the one’s on her neck, back, and thighs too.
The...

I'll destroy myself you say
But I dont want to be just another
Ordinary corpse.
I want my bones to be multicoloured 
My hair the colour of the sea
I want more tattoos 
Than stars under the sky
I want so many piercings
That when they reflect off the sun
They blind...

it all began with a lazy man,
who on his least lazy day was certainly more
lazy
than you or i,
and on one especially lazy day,
this rotund sloth 
sat in his own filth one late afternoon,
after not showering for days,
with crumbs crusted in his chest hair & the...

PROUDLY TATTOOED 

Proudly tattooed I am for you,
I saw you going to have one too,
My ink is stained,
For I never feigned,
To have one alone, we are a crew!

Only your eyes will bear on it,
And mine on yours, so it is fit,
Will we become addicted?
O what...
