Set your timer for four minutes and write a dialogue only piece between two people
where neither one of them are allowed to use more than four words at a time.


Ready. Set. Go!
"What are you doing?"
"Watching the lightning"


"That's not a window."


"I use my eyes."


"That doesn't make sense."


"We were Gods once."


"This is an office party."


"Gods..."


"Well, there's still fun."


"For you maybe."


"Why don't you mingle?"


"I don't really... mingle."


"That's why you should."


"You talk too much."


"Yeah my big mouth."


"Well it's your job."


"I guess, being messanger."


"Mercury, Hermes, which one?"


"Oh i don't use either."


"You don't?"


"Not up here."


"Then what?"


"Just The Postman."


"Right ok..."


"I don't miss it."


"The old days."


"It gave me blisters."


"Olympus hasn't changed much."


"We have though."


"Maybe, maybe not."


"The show must go on!"


"That's your pep talk?"


"Yeah, move your ass!"


"Oh, just this once..."

Yay! You did it. :) We did this in our writing class. The idea was that when we speak for real, we don't use many words, we often leave words out in a conversation.
I enjoyed what you did here.
