  • Once upon a time someone asked
  • why I don't create numeric lists in
  • real life, since I use them exclusively
  • when I write poetry. I started thinking. 
  • Lists are helpful and useful, in the
  • wrong hands they can also be terribly 
  • dangerous.

 

  • I'm not about to leave one lying
  • around for just anyone to find. 
  • An INTJ is often secretive, not
  • because we have anything to hide
  • mainly because my list of people
  • I want to kill really isn't any of your
  • business.

 

  • I don't fall in love, I decide who is
  • worthy of my affections and proceed
  • accordingly. Reading his name off of
  • my encrypted list would be easier
  • if you could locate and resuscitate
  • the surgeon who inscribed his code
  • on the left ventricle of my 
  • heart. 

 

  • He can practically read my mind,
  • that's the best part about loving an
  • intuitive introvert. Partners in crime 
  • is a tired phrase, who is Clyde minus a 
  • Bonnie in his life? It's not the kill,
  • it's the thrill, of our collective
  • chase. 

 

  • He's smart, that goes without saying,
  • like I'd waste my time on anyone
  • who fails to connect with me on that
  • seductive intellectual level. Maybe if
  • he wasn't so good in bed we'd get
  • more done, but when your hobby is
  • homicide,

 

  • and you're both trying to avoid
  • the corporate death penalty,
  • plans can take the fun out of sex.
  • I adore having a best friend who
  • has perfected the underexplored
  • criminally wanton art of silken,
  • procrastination.

 

  • Whenever people ask how we met,
  • I tell them I fell for his boardroom eyes.
  • Cool and reserved until we started 
  • negotiating, once he learned I was
  • willing to compromise, we began to
  • discuss acquisitions and potential
  • mergers.

 

  • There are days when he misses his
  • former CFO. She was brilliant, yet 
  • fatally flawed, corporate espionage
  • is a real problem, our attorneys are
  • still being retained. It takes time to 
  • rebuild trust, will her body ever be
  • found?
