I want to plant sausage seeds xD
...sorry I watch too much telly xD
Loved it! Super good and unique! YAY! xD -
A story in six words; what an interesting concept. This one leaves many possibilities open. What are these dragon seeds? In what context is the word "dragon" used? As the mythical creature or something slightly darker, more mysterious?
When this contest is over, maybe you will consider using these six words to prompt a longer story!

I've actually written about this before. See "Wings".
Albeit it's more of a vignette than a story. I could certainly expand on the idea. That's one thing I like about this, though. It's polymeaningful, not merely ambiguous. Different people can take it in very different ways and yet it still makes sense in all ways. It's only ambiguous if you don't put any of yourself into it, which is not how most people read.
If there's interest, sure, I'll do something longer with this. Do you want me to tell you what it means to me? Or if you want, just read "Wings"; you'll get the idea.

Think about it for a while. What could 'dragon seeds' be as a metaphor? The whole idea was for it to have many potential meanings.

Ugh, stupid double-post glitch.
