tattoos

ink on skin
a sin?
artistic expression
beautiful body
outlet
my heart's
tattooed with
God grafitti
ever a crime to tattoo
the surface?
rather, an
act of worship
decorating the
dust from which
i've come

I like your interpretation,
I personally don't think God cares =) our body's are His temple, but I think our body=our heart, and the stuff that can break in and deface our hearts is certainly not ink and needles.
Love you!

perhaps spraypaint is our way of saying we don't respect the building. perhaps we think we could've done a better job of creating ourselves. perhaps God's beauty isn't beautiful enough.
