1.) The old man, the little girl.
2.) The knife, the blood, the crying.
3.) The man, the wife, the baby.
4.) The last apple I will eat.
5.) I will never work ever again.
6.) My father went to the moon.
I thought it was interesting how your first three stories had a pattern somewhat with the various parts being separated by commas. I can only wonder what Eric had in mind when doing this. It seems this could just be apart of his writing style, at least in the sense of these six word stories. My favorite was the last apple I will ever eat because I do not know what it connotes. I try to apply it to many different things but never come up with a clear cut answer for why this person may never get to eat another apple. Immediately I wonder if they are dying and just really love apples but I think that if they were dying, they'd be concerned with much more than just missing out on apples. I guess it is up to the readers interpretation but it is likely no one but Eric will ever know the true meaning, if there even is one.
Thank you for noticing my pattern with the first 3 sentences and the last 3 sentences. All 6 of these stories are open to interpretation so everyone can have their own story behind each sentence
