Tattoos........ Is it art ?

[Kelena]

I'm with snappy on this one. The beauty of it is in the eye of the beholder. It is also in the artistry of the tattoo, and the canvas on which it was needled. Generally, I think of tattoos as a blight, associate them with criminality, and they go against my personal predeliction of never looking back. They have such a permanence. I am against permanence. I am inclined toward the future. I would never voluntarily get a tattoo. But I have seen some tattoos that actually enhance the tattooed. It's rare. But it can happen. And the exotica of it makes it memorable.
