Any word scramble
Is like dangl

A treat to bat
and swing
For the claws of
my intellect
Simply
Irresist

Very fine read and don't know how I missed it, but, bad me, I do tend to do prompts and return to see if anyone has added anymore on the same day but by the next day tend to only go to people who have visited me and forget to go back to the prompt page to re-check. Glad I was caught by your unusual title :)
