Odd writing exercise

Inspired by David Mack (the Trek author, not the comics artist):
Pick a song (score or other orchestral music probably works best, but "normal" music might work too), and try to write a short story or part of a larger work to accompany it.
I covered a 2:00 track in about 600 words, or 300 words per minute of music; David Mack covered a 6:35 track in about 3700 words (chapter 1 of A Time to Heal), or 565 words per minute of music. *shrug* Then again, the events in what I wrote occur at a much faster pace than his piece. :)
