Tattoo

                 Tattoo

Pricked skin with needles shaped from words
Outlined in black by society's random borders
Colored by emotions from a rainbow of feelings
Then rejected for the image that is permanently borne to view

               Piercings

Push it through
Tear the flesh
Pinch the wound
The damage lies inside, invisible

             Scarification

Razors slitting seperation
Fleshy fat erupts in mounds
Shocked by the drying air never to return
Creation's sculpture marred by an errant chisel
