Hi! My name is Kelsey, and I recently went ~~under the needle for the first time.
I guess it goes without saying, but it was incredibly difficult to photograph the sides of my head with my MacBook's Photobooth. Anyway, they were done by Mark at Chronic Tattoo in San Diego (PB). He did the semicolon first, but they were both done in the same sitting. In case you were curious!
I realize that they technically aren't "literary" tattoos, but I figured that you all might appreciate them anyway! And, if it's any consolation, I'm planning on getting a couple of lines from Berryman's Dreamsongs tattooed down my spine.
In an attempt to make myself feel like less of a faceless creeper, here's a picture of my (fresh) inner conch piercing that unnecessarily features my mug:
