(Nev - lmao! I think it probably was... Steph is perfectly acceptable.)

"Sam" was the unexpected entry in "The World's Shortest Poems That Feature Proper Names" for 1989. It came seventh. It is worth noting the controversy that year however. The winner was actually a poem by the little known Botswanian poet Eric van bon can ban Bottomsworthy with his entry "If I Give You a Tenner Will You Let Me Win?"

The poem contravened most of the rules of the competition yet was an overwhelming victor. The drama continues...

Q: If you took the wings of seven Balrogs and divided them by the number of Entwives, what colour is Legolas' hair?
