I really want a literary tattoo. This is my inspiration. None of these are mine. I post all sources or I will say when I can't find one. If your tattoo is on here and you want it taken down, please let me know. I will be happy to do so. Also, if you want to submit your tattoo, I would love it!
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Neil Gaiman
Walt Whitman
On The Road
tattoo with bonus background yeon. i’m so, so happy—it’s exactly what i wanted. hurt like a fucking BITCH but it was completely entirely worth it. this makes 3 freedom change progress life things that i’ve done for myself in less than 24 hours. i like that data. i like it a lot.
if a cheerfulest Elephantangelchild should sit
(holding a red candle over his head
by a finger of trunk, and singing out of a red
book) on a proud round cloud in a white high night
where his heartlike ears have flown adorable him
self tail and all (and his tail’s red christmas bow)
—and if, when we meet again, little he (having flown
even higher) is sunning his penguinsoul in the glow
of a joy which wasn’t and isn’t and won’t be words
while possibly not (at a guess) quite half way down
to the earth are leapandswooping tinily birds
whose magical gaiety makes your beautiful name—-
i feel that (false and true are merely to know)
Love only has ever been,is,and will ever be,So
T. S. Eliot
Lonesome No More!
I try not to post a lot of “so it goes” tattoos, but I like this one a lot.
