Twangy Guitar
lonesome tough
low
gritty growls
laconic as a bad ass movie star
arrogant
slinky
women stare
all over him
he's got it down
cold
a one man rat pack
on the make
'til the call of the road
takes over his soul
something he often regrets
but the lonesome tough
don't do duets

Cool!
I once lost a woman to a jazz musician. Never listened to jazz since, except Dave Brubeck.
Sorry, can't offer critique, this is rough, tough and powerful,

"cool", a favorite word of mine, don't know why, maybe its association with miles davis' cool jazz. sorry, didn't mean to scatch a sore spot! anyway, thanks for the read and generous comment.
p.s. Brubeck is WAY COOL!
