Writing a sestina can be like a cooking show where you are given a basket of mystery ingredients. The six words that recur in set patterns through the lines of a sestina are the mystery ingredients. The story you weave around and through them and the idea you leave with readers is the dish. With that in mind, use these six words in any order to write your sestina: spice, hat, apple, bake, fish, table.
