Bored by the conversation of her sorority sisters, Sam aimlessly
looked out the window. The frat boys
they spoke of with such veneration were nothing more than well dressed
mannequins; handsome but vapid.
She thought of Jesse. The way he looked in jeans as he
nailed the floor boards on the deck. How the sweat ran down his back, finding its
natural path. The way she felt when he’d pick her up and spin her until she was
dizzy.
She thought of her brother, smiling broadly as he greeted
his friend, instantly reminding her she was just the little sister.
ZZ Top "Sharp Dressed Man" ...Maybe not all girls are crazy for them.
This post is for the prompt of Sharp Dressed Man for Lance's 100 Word Song
AFTER reaidng your longer posts it was awesome to see you present something tight and immediately impactful.
ReplyDeleteI like what you did with the first paragraph. You get close to her immediately.
thanks for playing 100 word song...now, i cant wait for you to pick one
Thanks Lance, this was really a kick. The funny thing was my first draft was exactly 100 words. Totally not good to go, but at least my inner word clock was working.
ReplyDeleteDiametrically opposed to the typical Sharp Dressed Man...loved your take on the song.
ReplyDeleteWG
thanks, enjoyed yours as well.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it is the boy next door in jeans and a tee who out shines the Sharp Dressed Man.
ReplyDeleteusually does for me.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the casual look much more. Well done.
ReplyDeleteyeah, you can't beat tight jeans. thanks deana.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah! Nothing, nothing sexier than a good looking man in tight jeans.
ReplyDeleteit seems all the women are on the same page. jeans, it is.
ReplyDeleteunrequited love? The little sister lusting over her brother's friend? All wrapped up in a tight denim package.
ReplyDeleteYum
