Creative Writing, Ronald Edition #1

What if you were the last person left on earth, tweeting into the #nothingness?

You would need to know #HowToUseHashtags. Maybe even you could write a story entirely in Tweets as you wait for someone, anyone, to respond. If you were a #grammarnerd, it would be awesome because you wouldn't have to worry about other people's stupid mistakes making your eyes burn.

But what would happen if no one ever responded?
What if there was no one there to play the most intense game of #tictactoe ever?
Would you have lucid dreams of #farawayplaces?
Would you make a list of #thingsyoulikestodo?
Would you wonder why you were there?
Just you and the tweets and that octothorpe?
Would you ponder #anotherworld?
Would you make up a #lovefail story about the first day of school sophomore year?

And then, in response to a Tweet where you only say, "#greatexpectations #makesmewanttodie,"comes a response: "What's a #hashtag?" You might ask yourself, "#canIvomityet?" in a #rant because hashtags have been your everything and now the only other person alive doesn't even know what they are. You have nothing in common. Your relationship is doomed.

But then you realize how pathetic it is that hashtags were your only contact with anyone else alive in the universe. So you would ponder the stupidity of them. And then realize how #hashtags have become your bully.

Maybe you would start to wonder #wherethesimplethingshavegone. And you would #reflect and realize that you must do it for love if you don't love it get out.

So you simply haiku. 
In #hashtags.
