Tattoo

Lorraine Wade 1967 (St. Clair, Alabama)



Tattoo it's called a mark and some call it a expression.
Art on a human board for the world can see an express.
There opinion of right,wrong, holy, or unholy.
They base this on scripture concerning not to defile our temple.
But some go to church every Sunday an defile the holiest of temple
A tug a war of the human body which only God the holy one can condemn as ungodly.
A tattoo whether it's right or wrong.
To me is the least of mankind problems we can all write a song.
So leave tattoos to God and individual who chose this path.
We can only hope it's a faze and it want last and they will find there way to right path.
So let's tattoos run there path and eventually all parents, teacher, and coaches can say at last we are free of this thing.
