What is in a tattoo? If you are a mystic, you may understand the power of symbology and the power of piecing words together and spelling. From a young age, I was quite drawn to piercings and tattoos, I always knew I would be a proud bearer of many. My first tattoo was when I turned 18 years old. At that time, I was a careless, ruthless, wild young thing with a rebellious demeanor and an intense pain body. An emo, a punk, a headbanger, and an underground raver; something raw, like a wound picked at too many times, filled with angst from a broken home. You can imagine the tattoos that I got at that time reflected this, and truthfully I am quite glad I only got a few at this age. This isn't a story about those tattoos though, this is about my favorite tattoo.
