Talking about your tattoos in a loud auditorium
They called it gold
this precious object that won them
(what)
self-respect
and a chance at the eternal.
She shares pictures;
one wrapped around her neck,
two across her arm,
the finale... dripping,
melts luxuriously down her calf.
A claim to life. A stake in flesh.
Hers.
This way to pin down the flesh
as if to pin down
life itself.
