 | White Van Man | caseyg | Short Story | Literary Fiction | 5 | 0.70 | Apr 27, 2011 |
Summary:I am nervous about posting this on TNBW because it is very specifically British. However it is up for posting in a Brit anthology, so I thought it would be interesting to see what my American cousins made of it.
Some explanations:
White Van Man is a UK derogatory expression for tradesmen who typically use white vans and often drive them very badly and aggressively .. (Wiki has a good definition).
The towns and places mentioned all exist in the UK, but of course the characters don't.
Tesco is the biggest supermarket chain in the UK and their premium goods range are called Tesco finest.
The M1 is the main freeway from London to the major Northern cities.
The Sun is a popular, right-wing, UK tabloid (from News International)famous for having naked models on the third page showing their boobs (tits).
Grunt-box: toilet cubicle.
Lemmings; derogatory term for daily commuters.

Summary:This is my attempt at a villanelle in iambic tetrameter. I know nothing about poetry, so I hope I got this right. This rigid poetry consists of 19 lines: 5 tercets and 1 quatrain. The 1st line of the 1st tercet has to be the last of the 2nd and 4th. The last line of the 1st tercet has to be the last of the 3rd and 5th. Then those two repeated lines have to end the quatrain. The rhyming structure is basically like a stack of Oreos, all the chocolate cookies have to rhyme, and all the cream filling has to rhyme. And at the very bottom is an extra chocolate piece. :)Chapters: |

Summary:It was a warm spring day; the type where you could drink beer and watch the hotties in their T-backs at the Sand Bar, while they oiled up their asses to fry their skin and play Russian roulette with cancer. Unfortunately Mitch had grabbed the shit end of the stick. Chapters: |
