A kind woman with a tattoo on her chest . . .
huh???
I wonder if he had to submit a certain number of words and needed some filler.
Sounds like Tito Larriva was tossing around lyrics.
It’s epic Hemingway-style....the stuff that writers used to put into articles prior to the 1960s.
Go back to newspapers published in the late 1800’s...especially those in Chattanooga, Dayton, or Shreveport. You’d have a rich style and description of an event....especially train accidents where the reporter would describe individual victims, their trade, and their demise.
Actually, my curiosity is hooked on this one....WHAT kind of tattoo did she have?
He is not using “filler.” The person he talked to is about 19 and has a big new, vibrant red heart tattooed on her chest. I’ve seen her and believe me it leaps out at you. He failed at providing a reason for his noticing it in the first place.
