Another masterful installment to this story I wish I was in. Man he's one lucky slave
Hopeless in the sense that the old wasted and ill-formed person called Jack has been left behind in the old world where he was doomed to live his fantasies alone and afraid. Perhaps I should have used another term, but to those that have these fantasies, feeling hopeless IS part of the fantasy. It's like being in a bondage situation and knowing the rope is stronger than you are. If it isn't, then what's the point?
The human condition rarely allows for the type of capitulation you assume. Something about every dog having it's day. I see Jackie killing Johanna soon.
