loving the strings and the tattoo.
i'd love to get something like that...i'm kind of a wuss when it comes to tattoos and pain, though. Which is odd, considering I have a few. Hmm...

i think the tattoo is perfectly executed: the placement, the colors, the sizing and line-work! i drool.

and oh, the strings. oh.

the tattoo is absolutely beautiful. i especially admire the tendrils curling over and around the shoulder.
love.

I love that song!

Oh, he was a jerk sometimes, but he wasn't such a jerk that I can't identify with him from time to time and enjoy some of his work. In fact, he reminds me a bit of my father.

I can't disregard gems like the included quotation!

I think he's a great poet to use to access poetry! After all, his subject matter was/is varied/something folks could relate to no matter their background, and his word play while skilled was also accessible. I think, too, the short lines of his early work is spot-on because the short nuggets help a person digest poetry (i.e. figure out how to understand line). I often think poetry is misunderstood because people are not exposed to it early enough: It really is like learning a new language (i.e. the language of the line, a language focused in around metaphor). Oh, I'm rambling. I'm stopping myself.

Sad you no longer have Post Office!
