The tatoo on his shoulder of his first son.
The scar on his hand from his first pit bull.
The blue saphire in his ear was his first piercing.
The needle tracks in his arm from his first overdose.
The bullet in his chest from the last angry husband.
Another body on a cold table,
waiting to tell the story of his life.

This is pretty cool. It does show that when all is said and done, all we are is meat on a table waiting for the butcher to take us apart. The path he chose led him to the table as we are all heading to the table in our own way.

Oh My Word!!
Now this is one Powerful piece penned with emotions that tug so hard at the Heartstrings
I have been to a child's funeral and others where it is just gut wrenching to feel the energy...
the sadness and loss...
Painful to envision but You brought forth the images for others to inhale and see ...
realize how Precious Life truly is...
and can be taken away in a blink of an eye
Magnificent!!
Thank You for sharing Your Voice Sweet Soul!
Many blessings to You in all You do my Friend
Best wishes too
and much love~ Desire~*~
