Not long ago I got my first tattoo. A quote in MissEllen font with a bit of edwardian script. It is a quote from Paul Claudel.

"for the flight of a single butterfly the entire sky is needed"

It is just exquisite to me and summarized such a broad looming concept in such a sweet bumpersticker of a verse. Now this has happened.   Monarchs butterflies in space.

Damn, its like I broke up with poetry after getting it inked to me, and now need to work the endless vastness of the entire Universe somehow onto my flesh. Maybe I should have stuck with an ephemeral loves name?
