Miles in the Mind



Slickery, tipping tunes 
Bouncing
Driving the flaunted feelings 
Making me say, yeah, Should have gone Out
Listened to some Cool in the eve air
Instead, got some flash.
Twinkle and Sheen
All black and smooth and new
There are other things I may say, Should Have to
(Not THAT Shoulda. Other stuff!)
I heard once, from a Mad man of wisdom
Seldom worried
That it is better to sleep on something you have yet to Do
Than be kept awake by something you have already Done.

Time for some Ink.

I could do with some of that ink
on a seperate note
I had always heard that it is better to regret something you HAVE done than to regret something you haven't.
Don't know. I have regrets in both areas and right now I would say the biggest regret I have is something (or, moreover someone) I had done.
There were blaring neon signs with flashing arrows and ear peircing sirens going off and I continued doing it (her).
Now I trapse thru minefields...

Love your words baby!

I'm working on a tattoo for myself, little bits of pieces of things mangles into one. When it's done you will look at it and know it's MY tat! :)

Rock on

I have two tats, one more coming in November. Both of my current tats took me years to choose - SURVIVOR on my belly (for numerous reasons, not the TV show or the dumb song) and a symbol of my religion on my left cheekbone. I'm getting a Celtic knot on my lower back in honour of my father who is no longer with us.

Belly tat: *here*
Face tat: *here*

I love the verse with this post, its beautiful and provocative...
