If you were the narrator,
and I was the protagonist,
I bet you'd rig the story
in my favor. To my benefit
- and even risk the story, conflict,
character development, and drama
for my sake,
To make my story happy.
it would take
a miracle:
Intelligent design, a narrator
somewhat unreliable
- unfaithful to
your chosen or appointed
line
of work, you would shirk
all codes
of narrative ethics
to the contrary,
and you'd insert
yourself.
Become a character. But I'd know
in an instant: you already were.
You'd sweep in, snap me up,
describe
the closing of a storybook:
"Happy ever after,
the beginning."
Could be worth a look?
