Gothic Romance

She gives me fiction.

It is mostly short stories;

there are novels, however.

Never have I met a woman

who could weave a tale

with such slow suspense.

In everything she writes

I turn up

as a minor character.

It is as close

as I’d ever come

to becoming

an important literary

figure.
