thank you SO MUCH to everyone one that commented on my post yesterday.

i ended up breaking the poem up to fit my arm/the space i had, rather than leave the poem "true to form"- in the end my decision came down to how it would look best on my arm!






close up- right when it was finished.



you can also see the 1979 i got done last night as well. that is for my sister- the year she was born. that will heal into a nice light grey color. my arm is sloooowly starting to fill up with all my random craziness. i love it!

and this is what the poem means in english, in case anyone wants to know.

it's from neruda's soneto XVII:
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,
I love you simply, without problems or pride:
I love you in this way because I don't know any other way of loving .

thanks for looking!

pablo neruda
