CMLXXXIV
The trader
Always glued to his computer screens

She went to all girl military school
From young age
Early to rise
Early to bed
Organization only tool
Procrastination not in arsenal of cards
Smiles easily
Has gigantic heart
Total focus on items in her hands
Never distracted with noise
From distant lands
Will get any job done
Always has intelligence button on
No squawking
Just takes care of situation
