Short Story

It’s more than structure and diction It’s a type of literature that exists in forms It’s a piece of prose fiction It’s not a hurricane but a short storm Linked events in one depiction. Since it still has to fall in a category What’s so unique about a short story? Being shorter is not its only glory But it lives to gives us an allegory Longer stories require committing One chapter after the other Short stories can be read in one sitting Like the kind read to you by your beloved mother They’re quicker to grab those who read or listens Let’s commend the great work of Charles Dickens Short stories make use of the resonance and plot, but to a lesser degree And this is why short stories rock, taught to you by me
