Flipping through a fashion magazine,
I got hypnotized by this ad for MaxMara
I couldn't stop staring at the photo...
...something about her expression...
I kept turning back to it.
Of course, now I'm noticing her all over.
She's just a neato, confident tomboy,
who loves rock and roll
(namely PJ Harvey, Janis Joplin, and Jeff Buckley),
and talks about feminism all the time.
Mostly, she stands out to me,
because all the other models have this stupid open-mouthed empty-eyes stare that i can't stand.
she doesn't seem to do that.
She doesn't seem blank.

a revolver on the inside of her upper left arm,
"This Too Shall Pass" written on the inside of her upper right arm,
"This World Tonight is Mine" written on her right wrist,
"Redemption" written on her upper left forearm,

a star on her upper left torso (just under her armpit)
and a lightning bolt her upper right torso.
