The exercise:

Write a four line poem about something that has been: swamped.

  1. It definitely doesn't seem good that you started with drained and ended up with swamped... you'd really hope that was the wrong order in most circumstances!

    Swamped
    The ruler leaned forward from his agate throne
    And decreed I must be quicksanded.
    But in the end I could only be swamped,
    'Cos he never paid for the sand he demanded

  2. Greg - no, it doesn't seem good at all, does it?

    Hah, fantastic take on the prompt. Rhyming quicksanded and demanded just... so good :D
