note: Thought it might be fun to write a Noir style piece. I haven't planned anything out, I have no idea what the point is, how long it will last or the direction it is going, sort of like life, it's a crap shoot at best.
Enjoy the ride ...
I really don’t know anything about her, but she may have a trench coat.
Yea, OK that may sound weird, but she’s not an angst ridden teen who’s grandpa owns a .38, and I don’t think she’s accustom to hanging out in malls with nothing on but a pair of sneakers and the coat. And like I said she may have a trench coat, as with so many things in life, nothing is certain.
I may have been overstating when I said I really don’t know anything, but what I know isn’t much. I only say she may have a trench coat because she has the credentials of a private dick. Yea I know, another transparently lame attempt to use that phrase. What can I say, I’m not above it. I will refrain from the obvious follow up joke however.
I almost can’t help myself, but compare her to a cool jazz number, the way her long curly hair wraps around her face and her pale skin glows like the moon on a summer night. Just the sound of that makes me want to pour a drink and wash away the pain of the day. But this isn’t 1943, and I’m not writing a hard boiled Bogart inspired Film Noir masterpiece, so I’ll just say yea she’s a babe.
Not stylish enough for you? Be thankful I haven’t used the word dame yet, okay too late.
But she has that look, even though in this new millennium many don’t. Who knows’ maybe she doesn’t either, could just be my interpretation, all I have is a head shot to go on, that and a short bio. It read like a stat card nothing poetic but inspired me just the same.
Who says life isn’t filled with a certain sort of charm?
I have this feeling she may have that x factor but what do I know, I’ve never heard her voice, and I’m not projecting, I’m just saying the possibility is there, it’s in her look, didn’t I already tell you that, you have to start paying attention or this is going to take all day. We’ve exchanged a few words, sort of like passing notes in class. The benefits of living in a digital world, we get to regress. If you haven’t guessed yet, this was a fix up from the start, a friend with good intentions.
We'll see, this just might be murder...
