400 words left to play with, two scenes to finish. I'm assuming any numbering/the title doesn't count towards the 1500 limit.

ooh, i just read rames, i havent a chance if i enter mine
though what looked like a war turned more into an autopsy on his! but about the most technical one ive seen...

also what some others says not everyone has time 4 over 1500 words, putting in this amount as a maximum focuses on quality instead of quantity, how much can you write on decaying that is truly meaningful? this limit makes it easier to read also, much longer pieces can feel like there really dragging on, and chances our the extra work will be a waste and unnecessarily because to capture a scene you only a few words, its how efficient you are with the words which decides this, showing skill in itself if you can complete a meaningful piece of writing within the limit of words

I've been working on a piece of poetry all month, but I haven't gotten past the line


"There once was a man from Nantucket..."


I just don't know where to go from there.

mine so far, ive set up a serene scene and i just cant bring myself to making it decay

The Day Life Vanished


Amongst the cobalt of an aquatic surf silver scaled Capelin fish relish and splash in a crimson burnt sun. Fossilized shell occupies the under bank of some shallow waters accompanied with vibrant vitalized lily pads. Marshland surrounds the gentle sea with cotton grass dancing in a violent gust, while sparse rabbits hop tentatively and patiently while adapting to manoeuvre in the passive ground beneath them. The marsh is saturated with age more primarily than liquid. But soon everything hides and waits for reincarnation after sunset cloaks the vast terrain and a seemingly perfect scenery evaporates into the essence of heinous darkness.

Vitality was assumed to continue as it always did, only no light came on the next subsequent day, vegetation shrivelled

Then some crazy, psycho, ******* came along and nuked said serene local. And before long zombie and creepy **** started appearing everywhere eating the survivors and consuming all living things. Then a Crazed Rabbit came along with some nutty friends and pulled the hero trick by killing them all and saving the world... only to find out that he himself was infected. He would later come back ala Kerrigan style.

You can also add in a love story or something to make it more dramatic.
