Bones body is covered with scars.
Bones wears his life on his skin.

The illustrated man, if you will. Hopefully the scars don't go too deep.

Thanks Andrew,

No, the scars don’t go deep at all. They are strictly superficial.

Very impactful poetic and psychological statement, dear Bobby.

Skin is indeed our most exposed, sensitive and reactive organ.

Love,

Thanks dear Margherita,

What you say is very true. The skin shows so much.

Love Bobby
