Scrabble I

~ squidditas

Rules:

  • Each poem must be made from words formed in a hypothetical game of Scrabble, in order, with no inserted or deleted letters. Multiple words count.
  • Any letters left over must be declared. One should have no letters left over although one or two is acceptable.
  • Inventing words is okay.
  • Each poem must be a functioning stand-alone poem that makes sense.

Whaddupp, my name is Sam Hickford. I am due to graduate my PhD from St Andrews in December. I wrote about Clare and contemporary poetry. I have a book, Poems Sketched Upon the M60, published in 2021. I have quite a few academic papers which you can find here: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sam-Hickford. I publish other people here too, but unless it is signalled that someone else is the author, I am the author.
