Pathetic Skin, Flesh, “Brain”
Modern poetry modern verse contemporary poetry contemporary verse modern poem contemporary poem
Today already, twice, I’ve seen two pics
Of tattoos with dickhead spelling mistakes.
One says . . . “Musle Healing.” The dopy dicks
Who choose these ignorances are like flakes
Of dandruff from a Muscle Mary’s head.
The second one says that love is “creul.”
Now that is wisdom, better left unsaid
Though in this dumbo fashion, this “jewel”
Of foolishness. Imagine needles that
Tried Latin mottoes, or tried verse in Greek
From Archilochus, tattoos for a prat.
It almost makes me want to shout out, “Eek!”
..(I grumble maybe men with little brain
….Should be allowed a tattooed stupid stain.)
