Rewritten verse changes direction (5)

I believe the answer is:

veers

'changes direction' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'rewritten verse' is the wordplay.
'rewritten' is an anagram indicator.
'verse' is an anagram of 'VEERS'.

(Other definitions for veers that I've seen before include "Turns sharply" , "Swerves" , "Changes direction abruptly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
