Petes Poetry
My Temple
Artifacts and treasures burried beneath the skin.
Meanings are sacred and held within.
A lament tattooed every bare skin cell
Nothing changed or I could'nt tell.
Nothing but "You're jail bait scum"
And "Are you ready to take it up the bum"
It's a unique expression
So why this repression.
I'm not an outlaw or criminal
I just send messages which are subliminal.
For some it's taditional and tribalistic.
Others it's rebellion and sadistic.
I admire tattoos as pieces of art,
A walking gallery which I am a part.
My tattoos will be with me even after I'm dead.
And taken to the after life some have said.
My tattoos are forever
I won't get rid of them never!
