Easy Ink, by Amory McKeever




It could be a butterfly in rain
a famous quote from Mark Twain
trademark sign of the Wu Tang
hearts and stars around their name
or tribal prints it's all the same
to advertise their lack of shame

I've even seen a dragon's fire
two tightrope lover's on a wire
fantastically drawn crystal spires
treasures men die to acquire
words of purity on filthy liars
the rap-sheet of their many priors

Nothing wrong with being easy
when it's so easy to get you hard
then you easily let down your guard
and she walks off easy with your heart

Placed right above their waistline
flowers, unicorns, or zodiac signs
the occasional steam-punk design 
on display like neon signs
for such decorated concubines
will you be the next in line

Murals painted like sacrament
from mundane to the extravagant
they're absolutely adamant
to prove that they're not abstinent
and ready for the next inhabitant
I suggest you use some laminate

Nothing wrong with being easy
when it's so easy to get you hard
then you easily let down your guard
and she walks off easy with your heart

Nothing wrong with being easy
when it's so easy to get you hard
then you easily let down your guard
and she walks off easy with your heart
