I'm Tatooed Tony Tyler
a decorated guy.
Everyone who looks at me
simply wonders why.

Dragons are on my backside
breathing red hot flames.
And alphabetically listed
are all my favorite dames.

For Navy day I painted
a mermaid on my gut.
Then I turned around and put
propellers on my butt.

Spider webs on my feet
take the place of socks.
A hundred birds fly shoulder high
in bright and downy flocks.

Naked girls with frillies
jiggle on my arms.
Bouquets of roses on my chest
give me floral charms.

Both my hips hold cobras
writhing 'round my waist.
As for all other tooies
I won't tell you where they're placed

I'm Tattooed Tony Tyler
I think I'm going to cry
You see, I went a swimmin'
before the ink was dry.

how you react to what I do
isn't about me, but all about you

no way, jose,

that ink goes under real deep, unless the tat artist uses watercolors

Were these temporary tatoos, or the real McCoy! Or was this just a cute and fanciful write? Whatever the case may be, I enjoyed reading it!!!

Rusty,
LMBO Very clever. Enjoyed the fun! Welcome to Passions. You make a fun addition.


If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
