Ernest Hemingway was once set a bet that he couldn’t write a whole story with any meaning in just 6 words.
He won the bet with this:
For Sale
Baby Shoes
Never Worn
To bring that into the Trump era, particularly for any Americans reading:
They elected him
Surely they knew
All this would happen
That’s 10 words but I’m no Ernest Hemingway and, in any case, the orange narcissist can’t say anything in less than 100 words so it feels legitimate.
I just referred my story above to one of the AI gizmos, which said it’s an example of Flash Fiction.
It’s not fiction though, which just makes it all feel worse.
It also talked a lot about Trump’s Narcissistic Personality Disorder and other psychological disorders but that would really blow my word count
Now I’m allowing myself 10 words though, maybe this:
You never meet
A Trump voter now
Some bloody surprise
One of the other disorders is Cognitive Dissonance, which is the ability to hold 2 conflicting ideas in your head at the same time without perceiving any contradiction.
This covers that:
Keeps Invading Countries
Nobel Peace Prize
Just Won’t happen now
Bloody Halfwit
I could carry on here, but my wordcount’s getting worse every time
