Six Word Story
Only six words?!
How the hell
Literature
Prompt
A man stood by his window, all crossed arms and tired eyes. His dreams of flying like the birds had disappeared long ago. The night was swallowing him whole, but so was nonchalance. It was a suitable escape.
The cars ran down the street, their lights distorted in the post-storm puddles on the asphalt; the water spewed by their wheels rained on umbrellaed youths. It hurt to look at the vehicles crashing down the highway, crazy and epileptic and dancing in the rain. They were nothing more than a force of nature, he assured himself, suddenly cold and mechanical. They were machines with people trapped inside and what they did was uncontrollable.

i've seen a bunch of these six word stories around here. for a while i thought they were kinda silly, how can you tell an entire story in six little words? then a few nights ago i was falling asleep and my own thoughts kept scaring me. i remembered when i was little and this would happen i would crawl into my mom's bed or my sisters, and sleep there for the night. these six words kept circling my mind, so i wrote them down and here they are.
i might turn it into a longer story if i remember and can think of enough plot.
