In a "Granny and the Golden Bridge"

Claribel Alegria's Granny and the Golden Bridge is set against the backdrop of the civil war El Salvador in the 1980s.

In it, Manuel tells a story about his insane grandmother, an vivacious old woman who spends all day cooking to regale the government troops stationed around the Golden Bridge. The bridge is latterly blown up by rebels, and it is expose that they had received intelligence about the bridge's cover from Manuel's Grandmother. She dress up herself as a brothel-owner to escape capture, and the last image of her. In the story is when she is paddling a canoe upriver, carrying munitions for the rebel forces.

Jack Aqueroses's  "Agua Viva; a Sculpture by Alfred Gozalez; tells the story of Fifty Fredo, a mentally disturbed hermit who control scrap metal and hasn't shaved or bathed in fives years. Aqueros uses long, run-on sentences to convey Fredo's manic, compulsive inner world, a world as impenetrable as the scrap iron creations he builds in his workshop. A violent encounter with some neighborhood boys is his first human contact of any kind in years, and it seems to be the first step towards returning to society.

Llana [10]
B. False 
Not all Elizabethan sonneteers used the same rhyme schemes. 
 The pattern in which the rhymed line-endings are arranged in a poem or stanza is called Rhyme scheme.
This scheme may follow a fixed pattern, as in the sonnet and several other forms, or they may be arranged freely according to the poet's requirements.
