Challenge
Tell me something new
I want to read your individual take on anything BUT telling it in a way I've never heard before - not in books, magazines, movies, tv, films, video games, advertising, social media, quotations, cliches, school. Tell me something new. I'm not looking for experimental formats just simple solid writing from your individual POV and vocabulary. It can be fiction, non-fiction, a poem or prose - no rhyming. 250 word limit.

A story, in a new style
She stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the fireflies flashing their lights, like small matches burning off their tips, in their small lives waiting for the end.
The moon moved behind a cloud.
Darkness.
Blinding blackness.
She stood, wind blowing in gusts, swirling dust around her feet.
Power.
A hand grips her shoulder. Her back stiffens. Fear seizes her body. Darkness closes in on her.
A simple push.
A dark figure falling into the gorge.
Then the fireflies gather around, and all is silent again.
