Tattoo

Alma 3:18 --   "Now the Amlicites knew not that they were fulfilling the words of God when they began to mark themselves in their foreheads; nevertheless they had come out in open rebellion against God; therefore it was expedient that the curse should fall upon them."


I wonder at the piercings and tattoos of ev'ry kid
branding their own bodies in a kind of desp'rate bid
to show their independence or their macho or their . . . what?
They might as well be dabbing their own foreheads with some smut.
Why should I want to dye my skin all purple, red, or green?
The only needles that I want are strictly for vaccine!
