The Caribbean Writer

Non Star

John M. Figueroa

 

When heroine and hero come
on stage the playwright sends
me packing. I get lost

 

I am the frost on the cake
not the icing. I entice

 

in early action, drop a name
or two to set important people
talking. The critics find

 

my mind and character
underdeveloped. Perhaps a trace

 

of elements no longer
active
