Sonnet I

[Achebe]

Hi Rogo - I think it's a clever poem. But I also think that the quotation marks can mislead. I spent the last several days thinking that this was some sort of delicious word anagram, and tried to get the sequencing right...but was ultimately frustrated because it's not an anagram. 
Until I read your clarification I had no way of knowing.
If it's to be read in sequence as written, I don't see the point of the quotation marks.
