The Two-Faced Tattoo

The cryptic patterns,
Etwining the skin to the arts-
As if a person
Could be so attached
To inflict pain
Upon themselves...
For something which will be there forevermore...
But more in the soul than in the mind, it is contained.

Swirling colours;
The magic pen dances across
Soft peach flesh-
Piercing and injecting
The ink which will create
Unique and intricaticy combined,
Put your trust in the artist,
Embrace the tranquility of independance.

   ~   I entitled this 'Two-Faced Tattoos' because it is the mixed opinions and controversy surrounding tattoos - I suppose it's also part of my feelings because I am not sure about tattoos whereas they are an expression and also a bit... I don't know - different?
