Scene from Downtown
Gingerly, she brushed
smutch from his brow, lingering
tattoos left behind
I saw a couple on a street corner downtown, the girl was brushing something off her beloved's brow. I'm not sure how she saw what needed to be brushed away because he had tatts all over his face. I don't begrudge a person's need to decorate their body, but if you have tattoos anywhere on your neck or above, you have to be a) circus folk, b) a criminal, or c) pretty damn hardcore. I know sleeves have become completely commonplace, but the face tattoo is reserved for the Maori people. Or Mike Tyson. Or Peter Dinklage, if he so chooses.
Peter Dinklage can do no wrong.
