Son of 6 word story -- 6 (or less) lines of 6 words each

Six line story - it was dying.
Everyone agreed that it would tragic
to leave it festering all alone
in the pits of internet hell.
So Tein came to resurect and
bring it back to life anew.
 
Rest in peace the sign said
For you a short happy life
No one heard your last refrain
As lowered into the darkened pit
followed by the dirt and sand
to cover your last few lines
 
He leaves, golden spear in hand,
Enduring snow, fire, heaven, and hell.
Bleeding, he tames the wretched land.
 
Hello hello, what's this what's this
As by magic, from the dead
KESpires revives this long past thread
Brings it forth into life anew
As fair Teresa once did summon
Before the dawn of spectral mingling
 
She walks along dark, cold streets
Her footsteps the only, lonely sound
The moon is her companion, soundless,
Evil eyes stare forth from windows,
Hungry mouths hang open, dripping slobber,
They want to taste her soul.

Huh. Seems that when I do things like this depressing stuff always comes out.
 
The pathetic creature huddled alone, afraid
Strange invaders searched it out relentlessly
It only desired its' daily feed
The prey had struggled and screamed
The thing was a sentient being!
He would atone, if he survived
 
The light from the candle wanes
As the wax overruns the wick.
Piles of books and vellum sheets
Sit atop a crowded, chaotic desk.
The scholar sits, quill in hand;
Waiting for their muse to strike.
 
Irony

She is the type of woman
..who always writes books in longhand;
He is the kind of man
..who never does anyone a favour;
They are the sort of people
..who never know where anything is.
 
Umm...the whole point is to compress it into six words per line, sffh...
 
Well, it's not up to me to police the thread...but I did wonder if you'd noticed the restrictions...:D

I can be a bit slow on the uptake at times :D
Click to expand...

Is that because of your Sapphic nature, your lycanthropy, or your Orcness...:confused::D

What would you like to be?
Werewolf, goblin or lover of women?
Must I choose one? asked sffhound
or can I just be greedy...;)
 
In just six words, I'll bet,
Some poetry with bite we'll get.
But more than six? With luck,
The poetry may still not suck;
But that won't halt the moderator:
Who'll send them to the incinerator.

:eek:;):)
 
How to follow a Constellation, hound
of Science Fiction, and Fantasy found,
and a Sea Creature who features
eight spurs is tough without teachers
to help a mindless Mexican tool
Without coming across like a fool...
 
But I'll do my very best
to follow without sounding too hollow.
Tis' not the season to be
my cousin who is a doctor
in emergency who's very, very busy
with patients drunken, crashed, and dizzy.
