Verity Spott (born in 1987) is an English neo-modernist poet.

Spott was born and raised in the central region of England, and moved to Brighton in 2006.

[3] Spott's work has been described in the New York Times as, "mesmerizing, oneiric, enchanted, with language that surprises".

[2] An analysis of their poetry in the Chicago Review alludes to critical correlations between political situations and escapism, calling in to question the "very binaries of political engagement and escapist withdrawal, the idea that hope is the foundation for action...and the relationship between imagined actions and real ones.

"[4] Spott's work has been discussed in the Cordite Poetry Review,[5] and critiqued in the book, Wound Building: Dispatches from the Latest Disasters in UK Poetry,[6] among other publications.
