I do like the look of vertical the most. Should they all be aligned to the top? I don't know how to properly write vertically on a computer, but it would be something like this right?

正とぼ
しきく
いどは
行き夢
為ぼを
でく見
あにる
るは 。
よそ
うれ
にが
思た
えだ
るひ
。と



Edit.. Ahh... the alignment for the tsu and no characters at the end got messed up... like i said, don't know how to write vertically on a computer..

Align at the top.

There is no way one can type vertically on JF. Let me mention only what you need to know to write these 3 particular lines, which is the positioning of the period.

Open this for an example.
縦書き文庫 | いつもの日曜(ねじ)

The 「。」 must be positioned at top right of the square space. (It's bottom left in horizontal script as you can see here.)

ONE LAST UPDATE!
So, I'm all ready to go get my tattoo. Getting it next week, I have an image of what I want it to look like, I just wanted to post it here first and ask for someone to give it one final look to make sure there aren't any terrible mistakes. How does it look?



1000 thanks to everyone that helped me out with this. Special thanks to masaegu

There are no mistakes.

My final word is that I answered whatever I answered as a language question. It does not reflect my thoughts on tattoos in general or tattooing these particular phrases.
