sarcastic, sexy, and sad

she's the kind of girl i swore off years ago
and can't get enough of since

shiney eyes and slow smile hiding a head full of gunpowder

hair like spilled tequila
and a body that whispers "you can't have me"

when i can

    I think the gunpowder and the tequila are strong images - they pack a punch so to speak.

    The first line could be better. I think an image is always better than straightforward adjectives. I want to feel her sarcastic sexy sadness (no, really I do) - don't just throw words at me, you know?

    I think it would be stronger if you leave off the last line - even if it is your wife.

    Hair like spilled tequila - I love that . . .
