So I'm considering a new short story... playing around with a few ideas, and this is the one that has stuck so far. Thoughts?
**********
It is said that the
heart is a muscle. And like any muscle, it grows stronger with use. A strong
heart sounds of a war drum…
THUMP THUMP
Egging an army
forward to battle. Not all hearts beat as a drum.
THUMP Thump
Some merely emulate
the sound of a well organized squad coming to attention.
Thump thump
But within them all…
Thump… thump…
Is the sound of
life.
thump…… thump……
Fading life…
thump……… thump………
And yet…
thump……….
That does not
prevent you from feeling it…
thump
As it stops.
