Rob Schackne #1001 - "She begs him"


She begs him
please please
not to get

a tattoo
of her face

he sighs
feels alone
a sad moment
to be sure
they wait
they agree on
Chinese take-away

he reflects
a small snake
a turtle
perhaps

a bird

    1. Cheers, Stu. I'm a big fan of the inky art (although I have none myself), but all know tales of a long repentence. On the other hand...Chinese take-away, you eat it, and then you're hungry again a couple hours later.
