Peach
This is Kristina's tattoo:
Here is my peach. I've wanted it since I first read "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" in high school. There are so many lines in that poem that have spoken to my life, but this is what I chose. I will always eat the peach.
It was done by Josh at FATink Tattoo in Tampa, Florida.

- T.S. Eliot, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock
