He talks of it
As if it were
Fiction
As if my world
Never did really
Exist
And I never
Saved it in
2260
P.S> Since this poem is not intuitive, here goes. The perspective I wanted to put forth was that of a protagonist of a story. "He" refers to the author. It is a about the protagonists' belief that he is real, for to him, his world is.

Ah...now, I get it! Nice...totally different perspective :)
ah!! thank god you added that! now i also get it or else it was a straight bouncer for me..:D..
@RS, Pallavi: My apologies. I should have made that clearer. The perspective was a little unusual.
man that was cryptic...was waiting for someone to get it and comment:)...nice one actually...(reminded me of a tamil series where the characters jump out of a movie script and file a defamation suit against the writer:)...
Nice. I am back to blog-hopping!
Great one! I was not that cryptic even without your 'P.S.'
Krypton must be a real planet for Superman :-)
Aaah, now with your P.S I get it :)
@Frissko, sd, Radha, Rags: Guilty as charged, and, thank you!
I'll echo the others... I get it now!
And as the author of this snippet, are you going to give this humble protagonist pages of his own? :)
@Jyothsna: Thanks :-)
@Vi: I wonder how much a future world-saver deserves :-)
Wonderful, was bowled over by the first 2 paras and then totally confused by the 3rd. Until I re-read the first 2 again.
Parth: At least this, I hope.
Wonderfully written...I like your perspective although I daresay many authors will insist that their protagonists are living entities because they usually have something of the author in them.
deeep! :)
