Body Art Poetry Contest

In April 2002, a body art poetry contest was held on this site. The poems had to be about tattoos, body piercing or some other form of body art or modification. The following 7 poems were the ones that received the highest number of votes, although all the entries were really creative and enjoyable. The results will remain on the site for all to read.
