what getting a tattoo feels like
Oct. 5th, 2004 01:54 pmlike blake was etching his tyger
burning bright
on the flat plate of my lower back
like little tornadoes of my blood
circling up towards the needle
like pressing my palm against
weather-treated canvas to feel
the sting of a hail storm
at high altitude
like biting a clay pot
like knighthood
