Monday Morning Angst

[geekmama]

I would so much prefer to be on vacation today. Perhaps that thought has inspired this, my answer to this week's drabble challenge at Black Pearl Sails:

They have said it all before me, and said it very well

(seems that should be the first line of a poem....)

so I will just say that you do 'Monday morning angst' the way that you do everything else - beautifully! Angst well written, my dear.

[geekmama]

Thank you. As hereswith said, it's a good thing we know how it turns out. Glad you liked this one! :)

Oh. And that person who said you should write something longer? Well, they're right.

[sinister_beauty]

Wow. Really lyrical and beautiful but still intense in it's own way. Wonderful and very bitter.

[geekmama]

It was a bitter moment, I expect. Glad you liked the drabble! Thanks so much for commenting.

Poor Jack.

Wonderful and touching little drabble.

[geekmama]

Thank you!

a second later, a final glimmer from the depths.
Then gone, indeed.
Along with his plans and hopes and dreams.

Apparently Monday Morning Angst suits you quite well. Excellent look a what happened right after we leave that scene. Richly done and sad and beautiful.

Along with his plans and hopes and dreams.

Exactly. Poor Jack. *sheds a tear*

Glad you liked this, in spite of it being unusually angsty (for me).

Your drabbles ar such a treat. I love the angst here. Short but very effective. I can feel Jack's despair.

That's the thing about Jack, isn't it-- he's comedy and tregedy, all rolled into one perfectly entertaining package.

Thanks so much for the comments. I'm glad you liked it.
