In this month's Wired is a section on Six Word Stories. Fascinating read based on Hemingway's six word gem "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn". Much like the Haiku it is surprisingly exciting. Here are some of my favorites:
Epitaph: Foolish humans, never escaped Earth. - Vernor Vinge
It cost too much staying human. - Bruce Sterling
I'm dead. I've missed your Kiss...? - Neil Gaiman
The baby's blood type? Human, mostly. - Orson Scott Card
Time machine reaches future!!! ...nobody there... - Harry Harrison
Tick Tock Tick Tock Tick Tick. - Neal Stephenson
Good stuff!
