If I write it forward
Will you read it backward
If I write it in code
Could you figure it out
If I skipped a chapter*
How would you even know it
Would the metaphor monsters
Keep you awake at night
If I erased them too hard
Would you still see the scars
Will you read it backward
If I write it in code
Could you figure it out
If I skipped a chapter*
How would you even know it
Would the metaphor monsters
Keep you awake at night
If I erased them too hard
Would you still see the scars
*Line inspired by a comment by a fellow poet (Diya) on another poets poem.
