Novelistic

I've written a romance book, and you
are the antagonist. Don't worry! I like
when the bad guy wins, or in your case,
girl. The protagonist is

this amazing and mythic Mary Sue
type - you'll never believe he lives up
to the narrative hype, but so help me,

he might! Only thus

to fall
for a cunning and devious twist,

at the end of it all.

    I can't say why specifically, but this is a nice piece of poetry. Well done. It's perfect for a reread or two.

    Thanks! I enjoyed the capsule review nature of this one. It feels like there's more in there to unpack than most of my short ones.
