piggybacking on Kim, Ivana and Khatiya's comments...

Brevity is not necessarily Meaning's inhibitor! Two minutes could be a lifetime, even if it does make a short play. (Imagine a date with a two minute silence. How many things could that mean?)

How about a six-word story?
like this one, for instance:

For sale: baby shoes, never worn.

-by Ernest Hemmingway
He called it his greatest work.


Or a two-word (parenthetical) story?

My very photogenic mother died in a freak accident (picnic, lightning) when I was three.

- from Lolita, by Vladimir Nabokov

Here are some more very short stories.
Consider how to be more economical in your writing. Your first draft is the time to run wild. In draft 2 and 3 it's time to trim the excess word-fat.

(comments? some six-word stories of your own?)
