Six Stories In Six Precise Words



Rain all day. They fell dead. Music. He wakes to “The Sharks”. Seine: Holding her hand, he drowns. A train blast; the Bull dies. He tries to remember her photograph. “Close to Bermuda” was her address.

The virus known as "Hemmingway's Six Words" seems to be going around these days. I first detected it at Falstaff's, and let it infect me over at Gaurav's. You should let it infect you too. Further, if you like Papa's work, Best Of Bad Hemingway is a worthy addition to your library, for as Papa exclaimed: "The step up from writing parodies is writing on the wall above the urinal."
