Something sinister lurks beneath
Wickedly dancing under my skin
Taking possession of my body
Like heated embers of a fire within

Devouring hungrily upon my flesh
Of a red and rosy colored hue
Itching wildly beyond my control
To rid myself of this urushiol tattoo

Having foolishly been where I should not
I bear the marks of accidental sin
Seeking furiously my heated release
I desperately embrace this temporary solution

Stepping into the scalding water
I welcome the maddening euphoric rush
Stripping my skin of its histamines
Ahh.... eight sweet hours of blissful hush
