Ode to 100

A hundred words is a small, but perfect amount. It’s modest, but it can definitely pack a punch, and god knows it can deliver a line. It forces you to be precise and concise, but allows room to elaborate. It can be introspective, witty, bizarre, stupid, poetic, or all of the above and more! It’s a genre of it’s own. And as fast as it comes, it’s gone. And you, the reader, are left with a smile, a puzzled, pensive look, or an aha!, perhaps combined with the wonderment that such ideas could fit in a measly one hundred words.
