VISIONS

vision serpents.
i guess they were some kind of big deal.
i never met one, personally,
but i can see how a snake with a weird-headed dude coming out of it's neck
wearing a very fancy hat would be a big hit in a jaguar temple in the jungle...

anthony has been getting some fresh tattoos lately,
and i feel very lucky that i get to do 'em.
i double-booked the day, and struggled through a secretly stressful schedule
of trying to tattoo with speed and precision and effective efficiency.
luckily, i was vision-serpenting my way through more appointments
than the day should've been able to fit.
i felt like the dude coming out of that viper mouth.
i still do.
being swallowed up, or spit out.
i'm not sure if i'm coming or going,
or which one is worse, since neither is good.
today is another 'nother opportunity to do it better.
i'm gonna cross my fingers and my heart,
and just push forward;
never quiet, never soft.....
