This isn't my usual vibe, but I wrote these as stream-of-consciousness a while ago when I was in a foul but fanciful mood and will never use them for anything else, so might as well.
The idea was to be as dramatic, tragic, and macabre as I could be in the shortest amount of time.
So these are all one to three sentences long. I've done them all with the same 'template' and left in the order that I wrote them.
I hope you hate them, in a good way :)
They're meant to be funny, in a dark humour throw-up-your-hands-and-tremble-at-the-fragility-of-life sort of way.

One sunny day a happy little pigeon flew into a glass door, breaking its neck, and died.
One day a boy wore a pink shirt to school to commemorate the death of his mother by breast cancer. The older boys shoved his head in a toilet and flushed it. When they finally left, he started out of the stall and tripped, hitting his head on the tiles. After 23 years in a coma, he choked on saliva clogging his feeding tube and died.
