  • English Tautological Place Names

    I think this is the entire list.

    River Avon
    Lake Windermere
    Bredon
    Breedon on the Hill
    Brill
    Torpenhow Hill
    Pendle Hill
    Redruth

    Obviously over the years the original meanings of words have been lost and so extra words have been added to names for clarification.

  • Very, very short stories.

    Using only four words. All of these are written by M. Stanley Bubien.

    Title: American Idol
    "I believe in myself."

    Title: The Alcoholic Speaks
    "I'm not an alcoholic."

    Title: Desire
    "Here I am, Lord."

    Title: The Grand Illusion
    "I am in control."

    Title: The Hapless Prophet's Gravestone
    'The end is here.'

    Title: The Madman And Me
    "I am not mad!"

    A very unusual literary form; and I think some of my poems are too short!
