Body Arts

Tattoos

Finally you have agreed to become one of the brave souls who mark their body permanently with ink. You thought long and hard about whether this was what you wanted for yourself, for the rest of your life. There is no removing this, the final acceptance that nothing lasts forever but this life you have right now.

When you die, your soul moves on and this, the canvas of your life, is left behind. So if you can't take it with you, why not use it to define who are you, who you have been, and who you will be?

If you can't be a piece of art, wear a piece of art!

You walk uncertain and trembling into the shop, and he beckons you over to his chair. He looks at you with hungry beady eyes, and you wonder, is he looking at me? Or just seeing a living breathing piece of potential perfection?

As you sit down, and as he scoots closer, needle in hand and humming magically, you think maybe you need to think some more. But his hands are coming nearer, and now all you can do is hold your breath and not move as he bears downwards, needle aimed towards your soul.

Warning: Do not heal piercing or tattoo wounds unless the treatment is approved or performed by the artists who made them. They do not, will not, cannot be healed like normal wounds, because they are not normal wounds.
