tattoo considerations
I'm thinking about getting this tattooed on me:
We lay on a hillside underneath the moon
and the whistles kept blowing and the dawn came soon --
We were very tired, we were very merry;
we had gone back and forth all night on the ferry....
Those four lines of text, as an armband, around my right upper arm. Later, on the other upper arm, I get a blue iris, and maybe the line, "And bought a morning paper, which neither of us read," or maybe a line from the actual poem with the blue iris, such as, "It was all the little boats that had ever sailed the sea; it was all the little books that had gone to school with me." Or somesuch. But that's why that second one comes second.
What do you think of the first one?
And do you know a good font for a tattoo?
