The Narrator

Team Renfield-3

I have shared the fame

though only as “Boswell”

a messenger, a decoy,

and have gone through hell

serving a cold mask that

disguised the compassion

I was a loyal right hand

shared deeply his passion

I’ve told his adventures

His logic being always on

waited anxious for the famous

“Elementary, my dear Watson”

Reviews

Oh WOW!!! I Totally love this write so much, This is so good and so well written. Amazing!.........

[Mockingbird]

demonstrates how 'boswell' came to be a term which describes dr. watson as indispensable to sherlock holmes.

[Lauren Beth]

Nicely done, the narrator never seems to get the recognition they deserve...;) Enjoyed this piece!

[Ed Hart]

I also like this one. Holmes is a legend, but Boswell knew how to tell a story. Renfieldians unite!

Ah, I like this one (for reasons you already know).
