Bad Woman: The Killing Photon

A Story by Abishai100
"

Fictional portrait of a pragmatist (woman) borderlining on the survivor-narcissism of self-made profit-captaincy of Earth.

"
A noir tale of bad reputation.

Esmerelda was no good at all. Well, she was a normal Earthling in varied senses of the word 'normal' to those who knew her, surely. She was an accomplished businesswoman and college-grad and New England resident, but she invested in narcotics in the bordertown complex 'universe' of Tijuana, and she ruthlessly governed. When a small settler-group of young men tried to evade payments to her self-titled Esmerelda-Empire ('EE'), she burned their crops. Her defense was she wasn't pleased with the Earth ignorance of pragmatism and Machiavellian thought (Facebook-like!).



ESMERELDA: I want you to paint a school-bus and have it for my tourism-venture.
ASSOCIATE: This is bad, woman (damn).
ESMERELDA: The key to capitalism locks is simplified variance/diversity, fool.
ASSOCIATE: This is bad, woman (ok).
ESMERELDA: You're educated or what?
ASSOCIATE: Yes, lady...I've read The Prince on your behalf (sure).
ESMERELDA: Selfie-like.



Friends, this was a bad sky reading for Earthlings. Esmerelda was simply a social sorceress of the bad-woman variety (damn). Her burning of the crops made street-gossip time, and she knew she'd not concede her sarcastic distaste of those who simply didn't read/understand/appreciate Machiavelli's pragmatism-view of politics for finance (The Prince). She was now simply an acidic photo-bureaucrat of invisible profit-netting (for the Ego). Was she worse than the AntiChrist (Selfie-like)?



ESMERELDA: I'm making a cyber-education project for Machiavelli's imagery.
CONSULTANT: You're a teacher now, bad-woman?
ESMERELDA: I told you diversity is the hall of capitalist class, fool.
CONSULTANT: This is bad, woman.
ESMERELDA: Dawn of my thesis (ok).



"Doing well is the result of doing good. That's what capitalism is all about" (Ralph Waldo Emerson).
