“Something, something must have rocked his world as a young person to sink this far into that inky black abyss.”

I agree with you, lee.
Often times something causes an individual such pain that they literally hate their bodies.
I’ve often told my husband that something must have happened to an individual as a youngster to cause them to either total hate their body or want to disguise it from ever being hurt physically, again.
Unfortunately, too often, that is the cause. :(
This Tattoo man may not even himself know what allowed it to mutate from a hobby into a raison de’etre.
He said he was inspired to appreciate tattoos after seeing a large one his Uncle had done in Spain. Appreciating and being obsessed with are two very different expressions.
What is he hiding from?
