Death of a visionary
He was turning around to check if he was being followed.
His breath was short and heartbeat fast.
Dogs behind him have caught up with his smell. Soon it was all over.
He was naive in thinking people were ready for accepting improvement.
A great mind died alone and disappointed.
This was my contribution to fiftywords stories, genre of 19th CENTURY HISTORICAL FICTION organized by @miniature-tiger. To be honest, this was hard for me, I usually write long stories so to write something with only 50 words was a challenge :) If you like this story feel free to upvote, comment and/or resteem, and be sure to visit @miniature-tiger and check all the other great miniature stories.
