(no subject)

so, i've had this idea for quite some time, but i'm lost on where exactly to put it.

the quote And death i think is no parenthesis by cummings has been meaningful in my life, as the entire poem has been. essentially the end for me sums up that poem and i'm attached to the entire quote.

however parentheses themselves; ( ) have also been part of my idea, but i have no idea how to incorporate them.

i've been debating whether i wanted a bracket on each of the tops of my feet, or whether to get one and someone i know get the other. however, attaching myself to someone (even if they are simply brackets) has not been as appealing.

the quote however, if i wanted it with the brackets would be too long for my feet and be awkward separated. i was considering it on the inside of my right forearm, as it is completely bare and ideal space.

but i have no idea if i want to use; (And death i think is no parenthesis... and leave it without a bracket, and possibly drop the ellipsis. using only one bracket at the beginning also encompasses the meaning of the poem for me, but (And death i think is no parenthesis) is also a viable option.

font-wise, i'm pretty set. i'm either using times new roman or a typewriter (possibly mine, if it can be done) font.



my left wrist.

e.e. cummings, parentheses, fonts, placement
