Six word stories ... an exercise in brevity

Attempting to tell a story in just six words

Engagement ring for sale, unwanted gift.

Needle, blood drains, tea and biscuits.

Dead calm, hot, parched, only sea.

I sprinted, the crowd cheered. Gold!

Coffin, flag, tearful relatives, Last Post.

Ferocious barking and paperboy cycles away.

a short poem, but well written. It was definatly unique that's for sure. But that's what gives it it's own spark about it. All in all, I liked it allot :)

This is interesting, and I love the concept. I believe you pulled it off with flying colors. :)
