Coe Review • <strong>Issue</strong> <strong>22</strong><br />
Dr. Arbuckle<br />
Chris Funk<br />
The difference between me and licensed tattooists is that i’m an artist.<br />
the sample books were laden with<br />
dagger handles marked with swastikas<br />
Dixie Land Yosemite Sams<br />
sacred mushrooms<br />
and Japanese Kabuki<br />
Is this going to hurt me?<br />
the artist blows his nose and cares enough to<br />
change his jaundice rubber surgical gloves<br />
he even throws in the colored ink for no extra charge<br />
It all depends on how you interpret the pain<br />
if pain is an orgasm, then it’s good.<br />
he swabs the blood of this 19 year young pretending to be a<br />
cryptic gang leader of the Oakland Diablos or the North-West<br />
Invaders<br />
Light me a fucking cigarette Bill.<br />
Does it hurt Roy, as much as the one on yer leg?<br />
Just give me the fucking cigarette, asshole.<br />
Roy’s stomach tells lies as it winches like Jell-O in turbulence<br />
each drop of $1,000 per 4oz. bottle, F T A approved posited into his<br />
epidermis<br />
seeping to his cheeks, the red poison of Arbuckle infecting<br />
his numb virgin spinal cord<br />
Love is temporary, but a tatoo lasts forever<br />
they’re very addictive.<br />
