Today's Tattooed Poet is Cheryl Maddalena. Cheryl is a performance poet from Boise, Idaho.
Although the photo above is small, the tattoo is big, bold and beautiful.
Cheryl writes:
"It had occurred to me, as a performance poet, that I could never read other poets' tattoos from the audience. Mine is 200 point lowercase Times New Roman, the same font as all my poetry but a larger size."
The tattoo was done by Sean Wyett at Black Cat Tattoo & Piercing in Boise.
For a poem by Cheryl, not coincidentally titled Why I got the word “beautiful” tattooed on my arm in 200 point lowercase Times New Roman, head over to BillyBlog here. There's also a clip up of Cheryl performing.
Thanks to Cheryl for sending us her amazing tattoo!
