Words like swords (Posted on 2024-01-01) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Ernest Hemingway, so I’ve been told, was once challenged to submit a short story using a minimal quantity of words. After a brief consideration he allegedly marked a 6-word ad in a current newspaper: “Baby shoes for sale. Slightly used.”

It was indeed a short synopsis of somebody’s tragedy.

Please provide a similar example, not necessarily shorter and not necessarily sad.
