Tequila Sunset
Driving in a stolen car
Recovering from a sordid past
So drop into the Last Chance bar
And order up some Cuervo fast
One two three shots going down
Feel the spread of liquid gold
Not as many sorrows left to drown
Or prevent you from waxing bold
Just check out that vision dressed in black
The one with black hair and emerald eyes
She just might cut you some slack
And admit you between those thighs
So wander over, drop your name
And offer her your smoothest smile
She can't seem to guess your game
But still claims to likes your style
But she says her name's Enigma Rose
And that kind of rings a bell
But that hard on throbs and grows
And will defy the fires of Hell
She takes your matter well in hand
A caress from this fatal muse
It's with her you'll make your final stand
And find deliverance from those blues.

She's one of my imaginary friends, popping up for a cameo now and then. Thanks Grace.

Here is the enigma in your ink. Not much of a dilemma there, eh crowfly?
Good atmosphere. Save me a shot or two.

Thanks Katja. I probably rely too much on rhythm and rhyme, but it does help when read aloud. Therein lies my motive.

Thanks Victorian. I try to imagine how things sound when read aloud. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

Ohhhh.... the storyteller takes it to a rockabilly place.... smoothly giving this Enigma soooo much more dimension and persona past vigilante-candy. Yeah, it's cool to watch growth. She haunts every young man's fantasy from some corner, but she just happened to choose you to take by the hand and reveal her face. Damn!
