For those who don't like to read backwards:
You turn me inside out
And flip me upside down.
You make my heart flutter
Without making a sound.

I periodically send backwards messages to friends, so I thought it'd be fun to send a backwards poem to y'all. :)

I think will write a poem.
But what about?
It should be about something important,
Like sub-Saharan drought
Maybe it should be funny,
Well that made me laugh.

I think I will give it a nice rhyme,
Like orange and door hinge.
Or place a hidden message,
Egnirc em ekam t'nod.
It could be deep,
But your as deep as water in a spoon.

Lyrical might my poem be,
Stop you'll sound like a loon.
It could be about struggling,
Except you don't live in a box.

How do I start it,
And what should it be called.
Ill check these poetry books,
How many stanzas just one or three?
This is harder than it looks,
Ill stick to tv.
