That was fucking superb. I tried to express appreciation without swearing, but it couldn't be done. Abso-fucking-lutely excellent stuff!

I, for one, am not offended by swearing. Thank you for all the words, even those beginning with f.

What a very interesting presentation of the information in the original drabble! Taking straight off from the last line into the hopelessness, the stuck-for-eternity, feel of the original play. You underline that isolation by fiddling with how the characters are perceived - completely separated, with artificial personae, however clearly they communicate with each other. Congratulations. (Now I'm wondering how closely the stage directions mirror the action of Godot - it's a long time since I read, or saw, it.)

Thank you!

To be honest, it's been awhile since I have read or seen Godot either. But every time I read the drabble, I got an image of two men sitting under a tree, waiting an answer.
