Rainy Day Tattooing

_____________________________________

Gray, rainy Sunday wrist tattooing

Why not? What else would we be doing

On this washout of a day?

Tattooing wrist, Sunday rainy gray

*

Fortitude and patience, creation and onlookers

Curiosities and artwork, WiFi connected appointment bookers

Raindrops and ink spots, a life choice with great magnitude

Onlookers and creation, patience and fortitude

*

Smiles and relief, independence and milestones

Surrounded by insects with gears and deformed bones

This curiosity shop slash tattoo parlor beguiles

Milestones and independence, relief and smiles.
