There once was a girl born without eyelashes. This was ok for a while because she lived in a town with very little wind and even less dust. But as it so happens with young girls, she soon became a young lady with great desires and big ideas. When she developed a twitch too furious to ignore she set out to travel the world. In almost no time she was confronted by the immense amount of dust and wind that move about the earth and very gradually covered her eyeballs until she could no longer see and was blinded forever.
I like this short story. Even the shortest stories can "wow." It seems complete, but if you are looking for some CC, perhaps give the girl some sunglasses, tell her to get her groove on ;)
