This 7-9-7, Rabble, has the proper formatting and displays the titled word while showing the reader that there is always someone lower on the food chain then him or her.

Even though the meaning of your obscure word is to convey disruption. I found your poem quite amusing. Yu dd a very good job of displaying what the word means right within your poem. You were even able to give a use for it. You will draw in readers especially if they are scrabble players. Well expressed. I am voting for this one.

A very well-written obscure word 7-9-7. An unruly crowd that comes together to babble about all the things that makes them unhappy is called a rabble that only scores ten in Scrabble.

This one raises a real hearty chuckle in this obscure word 7-9-7 prompt - and the manner in which the connections are made between 'rabble' and one's ability to score in scrabble !!

You've written a fine 7-9-7 poem for the contest
with the excellent addition of three rhymes.
I try to avoid any unruly looking rabble
they always spell trouble, sometime double.
Well done
Good luck in the contest
Robert

I do not enjoy being anywhere near the RABBLE when they are angry. Neither did Charles Dickens who wrote Tale of Two Cities. I truly appreciate the inventiveness of your rhymes, especially your allusion to the word game Scrabble. Rod

Your 7-9-7 poem is good, and the rhyming is an effective enhancement.
I would give a 5, but there is an error. "Rabble" would get you ten points in Scrabble: 1 1 3 3 1 1.

This rating does not count towards story rating or author rank.
The highest and the lowest rating are not included in calculations.

It's not a word I hear often, but I have heard it before. I guess it's obscure, because nobody uses it today. Not a good scrabble word, huh? I try to put the higher scoring words on double or triple. One good one if you don't have good letters is airt, because everyone challenges it. Good luck in the contest.
