yesterday I spent 4 hours
in the tattooist’s chair
well chaise lounge actually
this piece started out
being thought out
and in conjunction with
my spiritual paths
then Rachel died
and my thoughts
got tossed
in another direction
so…
part of it is
a memorial to her
part of it is still
spiritual
and part of it is directional
and speaking of new directions
I have a new job
starting July 11th
at another Uni here in the city
I’ve mixed emotions about it
I’m going to really miss so much
about the previous place
but at the end of the day
I’m not going back there
for the goodness of my health
I learned lots there
and it’s time to move on eh?
so…here’s the beginning
of my leg piece
approximately one third
of the whole thing
it’s sore today
but it’s a good sore
if ya know what I mean.
there’s still a lot to do
however…it’s a start
