BLACK

black flag,
black thought,
black sabbath,
black licorice-
all of those are preferable to black friday.
and i didn't buy a damned thing.
no, i didn't opt outside,
or buy nothing because i love npr or cloth grocery bags or whatever.
i just wasn't feeling it.
i saw that a lotta tattblasters were giving away time on credit,
and it wore me down like you wouldn't believe.
no.
for real.
gift certificate upgrades make me wanna die.
buy this much, and we'll give you extra?
nah, b.
AMPERSAND TATTOO doesn't play like that.
even if 'painting season' or as we simply call it: NOvember-
was, as usual, a mutherF*ing sunovab!tch of a month,
i'm not gonna go on ahead and eff up february for free,
just to buy presents in december.
i am too financially wary and artistically egotistical to promote myself at a discount.
however,
now that my black mood is in full effect,
lemme just say that i'm booked for the day today, on small business saturday,
but y'all can come in and get some of these full-price whatevers all damned day.

t shirts,
hoodies,
BIBS,
and gift cards are what you prolly need for your people.
i mean, i'm not sayin'-
i'm just sayin';
never quiet, never soft.....
