Tattoos & Salad

How vain.
How fake.
This abstraction on skin.
What does that ink mean to you.
The minute it intruded on your body.
The blood popping vessels.
Like the taste of a dime,
Made salad.
My skin is more precious than that.
And as I turn my head away
From your canvass as a walking
Talking form of art.
Who am I to judge
What of its content.
Its meaning.
Are you missing -
Or am I missing out.
Dressed in plain plaid.
