79-WORD CHALLENGED?

79-WORD CHALLENGED

Seventy-nine words,

One-half a TWEET–for the birds…

The story begun

But over (not run),

Not useful for writing a dirge.

The thing about writing prose,

Was during the process he froze…

Sounds infantile

But is it worth the while,

To write something up from the toes?

Describing any consequence,

In seventy-nine words is immense….

A story clip

That readers flip,

Wondering what happened hence?

The moral of the story–

Don’t  worry,

The stories come!

–Jonathan Caswell
