the short short story

Words have a certain beauty about them. It doesn't take a three-hundred page novel or sixty stanza poem to convey that beauty. Using no more than a paragraph, one can conjure the same power as a book, and require the reader to use just as much, if not more, imagination.

This is not a new literary genre but it is relatively unknown. Most of these are original short short stories. Those that are not are credited otherwise. When I think of new ones I write them.

I've included a lot of poetry and songwriting as well, especially recently. I hope you enjoy it all.
...it goes

 I don't mind
Spending time
I don't mind
Spending time

 We've all got ours
It's never dealt
You don't tell time
It's only felt
You can't divide
What can't be spelt
We've all got ours
It's never dealt
You don't tell time
It's only felt
You can't divide
What can't be spelt

 Time
It flows
Time
It goes

 I don't mind
Spending time
I don't mind
Spending time

 You can't count time
When there's no part
You don't need clocks
When you've got a heart
You don't need ends
When there's no start
You can't count time
When there's no part
You don't need clocks
When you've got a heart
You don't need ends
When there's no start

 Time
It flows
Time
It goes

 I don't mind
Spending time
I don't mind
Spending time

 Time
It flows
Time...
