Feb. 18 2011 "Guns and Flowers"

Was it Watchmen that had the opening scene with the hippie putting the flowers in the barrel of a rifle? Yeah, it was. It's such a powerful image. It always makes my heart jump when the shots ring out and the flower bursts. It makes me want to cry. I've thought about getting it tattooed on me but I don't know how it would be placed to look right. Maybe an AK-47 with a daisy on my ribcage going down past my hip too? idk... I've always wanted a hippie tattoo on me cuz I grew up as one (lol, I'm still a hippie!) XD I love the movie Hair:the musical, but the play is SSOoOOooo much better. "Let the Sunshine In" always makes me cry (it's the main song at the end of the play). I thought about getting some of the lyrics from it on me too. Come to think of it, the flower/rifle & quote combo would look great together. :) here's some possible quotes:

-"Let the Sunshine In"
-"Let the Sun shine"
-"facing a dying nation of moving paper fantasy"
-"listening to the new told lies of supreme visions of lonely tunes."
