Elucidating Questions

My tattoo looks like someone barfed colours on my arm and saran wrapped it

In the vague shape of Saturn

And it itches like a bitch sometimes

But it didn’t hurt as much as creating the scars we were covering did

Or the way it ached for days afterwards

It just feels mildly moist and I kind of hate it?

But I’m willing to do whatever to make this thing heal properly despite all my various blood, skin, anything problems

It looks like it’s scabbing

What am interesting process this is

And humans had to perfect it too

Some however many hundred people were history’s guinea pigs

Well I like guinea pigs, so it’s fine

It feels like a right of passage

In a different way than my piercing did

Maybe more ancient

Scarification probably being the first kind

And I’m covering mine up

No, not really

Acknowledging that I tried to find Death

And Time told me to wait my turn

But that I won’t go down that dark road again, regardless of turn

Someday I’m going to remember getting this tattoo as a fond memory, maybe I’ll have all the planets, maybe I won’t

But I’ve got Saturn on my side

I can’t forget you’re with me now
