poem of the day October 21


Give the branded better branding
to compete against tattoos
make them art works of self expression
instead of punishment by public humiliation
Though they look so very similar upon the lovely skin
one is a map of magic meaningful journeys 
while the other IDs one marked of sin
But for the casual observer who stares at both cheeks
it is hard to tell whose living hell
from those who're super chic
The only one that can tell the difference of the painted onion ball 
is the one who wears the marks that cover their inner soul
