I want people to understand what I write, but I do not want to use conventions such as plot or dialogue to tell a story.

Without a plot I have been criticized of not having written a story, but something that does not make sense. I do not use much dialogue in the stories, but there are characters in the story and they do exchange words.

These stories are between 400 - 1200 words.
