My Walking Heart

So, last night, I got inked...I'm madly in love with this beautiful new addition to my body and with the meaning behind the words (Clare Bowditch's words). You can read the meaning below for yourself, and even listen to them being sung...

I cannot stop the world
But I'll be the tigress behind you
I'll help you build your armour
But you'll have to wear it for yourself
Of course I worry too much:
how can I not, you're my walking hearts?
Just beware the masquerade:
The circus that shines, but will not stay


Clare Bowdicth and the New Slang



All praise to Ryan from East Brusnwick tattoos. He's a superb artist and a lovely man and I'm thrilled to be wearing his original, hand-drawn art.

Thinking my next tattoo...

This image of Mary Magdalene or...


the words...


My walking heart


wrapped in a banner on the back of my neck below the existing tattoo of a feminine cross...
with this
added to the cross.

And the one I ended up with?
