Eeep. Ick. Agh.

Although, I can't help snickering at the idea of a drabble that's shorter than the blurb...

At least you read the summary & blurb & title. bsg_aussiegirl tells me not everyone does. And in my fics, the titles, summaries & LJ cut lines are all very important. Tnx for giving this one a spin even if your found it eeep, ick & agh.

LOL! OK, let's try for coherency this time: that certainly has shock value! And I'm intrigued by the concept of telling a story using literally a handful of words and some strategically placed punctuation - and I do like the ambivalence of this one.

I find haikus incredibly difficult to write. They've got to make sense & that last line is supposed to be the strange zing. I was goin' for the shock value. : )
