I got gripped in my night school class (creative writing) and had 3 mins to make a poem about something that visually inspired me. 😮

I based it on one of Knighthawks’ tattoo’s (and my impression of him from his posts). Not a serious piece but hope you enjoy!

Feelin’ Pretty

When I am feelin’ pretty,
I feel it to the core,
I feel those emotions,
I feel them raw.

When I am feelin’ pretty,
I gotta roll those dice,
Weaving through shadows,
Dancing on thin ice.

When I am feelin’ pretty,
I get my skin inked,
Scorin’ the odds,
Livin’ to life to the brink.

But most of all when I am feelin’pretty,
I feel alive, it’s carpe diem baby.

Anyhow I got a decent grade for it – so who says that tattooing cannot help educate ppl 😀
