The Programmer Killed The Artist by fallguy(m): 12:44am On Dec 06, 2010
A man was having an affair with his secretary. an office thingi.
it was so umh that they took it home after work and
she became his significant unwedded other.
it was - ummh honey can't have enough of me/u -
we all thought it was a matter of time before he said the word we
were all waiting for.
she smiled more and more like she had finally nailed him .
but that wasnt all to her - she chose his ward drobe , his food ,
and his shoes - friends remarked that the man was looking daper than

usual , it was his live-in honey that was doing things.
she also took him to high society functions and stuff like that,
shows of the elitist kind ,not rowdy rap music concerts.
she was polishing up her man

the story didnt end there
randy had anoda secretary.
this one didnt have coffee breaks with him
she was business like
if she had a heart or was romantic it didnt show
but she was efficient .
while the ladies at the office were chattering away like crickets
lady loved her work and worked at it.
she was a programmer.
their affair started in his mind when she showed him, using cold
maths, how the company could save money using a different quantitive
technique.
now ,this is a company that ran on heuristics
but this ice lady suggestd techniques with measurable results.
the difference was amazingly clear.
profits rocketed, the man was credited the man was promoted.
talk of praise , nobody knew it was the office lady that was the

brain.
was she smart?
the man was just realising it.
if sb is smart enough to affect your career advancement u'd look

again?
so he looked again and looked again at her.
then he saw it- no ring on index finger?! she was free.
no he failed to avoid her but he lost interest in his former woman
the rivalry wasnt small thing.
the first hated the programmer for snatching her man
and plotted against her
but no no no.
she failed , the programmer with cold calculation sent assassins
after her and the job was as smooth as u could imagine.
she died when her car sommersaulted 3rice and caught fire exploding
after the 3rd flip - she possibly made it out dead .charred to soot.

that put paid to that distraction.
the man married asap but it was a done deal orchestrated by the new

lady.

many years later the man began wondering if he had taken the right

move really.
her cold calculating mind was becoming predictable and monotonous
she lacked the spark and liveliness of his former lover.
she always wore black
she was always thinking things thru
and she had no sense of humour.
he wondered if he had made a mistake with her.
if wondered if she killed his late ex.
he missed the artiste but the artiste is dead the programmer killed

her.

^^^You truly have no appreciation for art. the poem's dark but passable. its all about losing what you have because you dont appreciate it.
