Imitation Poem

I like the way tattoos change your identity.
They give you a deeper meaning
Vague ideas or intricate images

I'm interested in the ink of tattoos.
The way it rots your veins,
With their permanence
Piercing your skin with remembrance
Of past and present experiences

Tattoos exist in collages of colors
Or simply black and white
Complicated or boring,
Large or small
Diversions of definitions

And descriptions, rules, or morals
Love or hate
Passion and anger
Emotions of all kind
