Brian @ Living Arts rocked out some new ink today... on mah THROAT!
It says "De Profundis Clamavi"
It's Latin for "From the depths I cried."
Multiple references:
1) Title of my favorite Baudelaire poem from his volume 'Le Fleurs du Mal (the flowers of evil)'
2) Psalm 130 -also known simply as "De Profundis" - which reads "De Profundis Clamavi ad te, Domine (From the Depths I cried to thee, oh lord) This lament, a Penitential Psalm, is used in liturgical prayers for the faithful departed in Western liturgical tradition
3) a lyric from the AFI song "Midnight Sun" off the album 'Black Sails in the Sunset"
4) Used in an Oscar Wilde love letter written from prison to his gay lover at the end of his life
Fucking LOVE IT! Pain wasn't so bad. Healing perfectly. Bad ass
