INKED

by David Knape

Every pore covered
every inch inked and sprayed,
we're rapidly becoming
tattooed USA

We are the new primitives
like natives and slaves,
tattooed views are common
as breathing these day

A tattoo pronounces
your ego displayed,
like a billboard it announces
what you have to say

Tattoos accrued
might eventually fade,
but tattoos, once gotten
aren't going away.
