In a happening town,
portrayed in a
much awaited book of fiction
an imagined woman
elopes with someone;
a shadowy figure , the inept novelist
shoddily handled.
this character
at one unexpected turn
disappears without a trace.
the female character
aspirant protagonist from chapter one
was reduced to a mere caricature
without any future in fiction.
