Years ago in New York
I branded myself
With a tatau
Walking into a tattoo parlour
In a short but well fitted
Business suit
The artists inquired my curiosity
As though I was wasting their time
I chose what I desired
Including the location
For the early 90's
Unique
What I found amusing
My skin is smooth and pale
The vibrancy of the tattoo
Appeared fake to many
My skin as the back drop of ivory
Made the colours stand out fabulously
Today it requires a touch up
Or re structuring
Still looks great on the inside of my wrist
I took a gamble
It paid off
