I am fine.
A reverse poem48 total reviews
Comment from SimianSavant
This is a neat form, probably the first time I have encountered it, and has a somewhat dramatic effect when read backwards.
It seems you had the most difficulty with the coherence of this form in lines 5-7, where you also took the most risks.
Looking forward to seeing more of these in the future. This was a great topic for a first attempt and overall rather successful.
Regards,

Thank you so much for your kind words! I truly appreciate the honest feedback- your observation is completely accurate. Those lines (5-7) were driving me nuts. I will re-visit. Thank you, again!

Yo deserve the six for all lthe wonderful effort you put into writing this poem and sharing it with us. How awesome to see that the same words, depending on which way they are read gives a totally different picture of the person. Great Job!

Comment from June Sargent
A unique and clever format! I might try it myself. The sentiments highlighted, however, could be relatable to many readers. How many of us are wearing masks?

It is certainly an interesting form, but clearly very clever, I doubt I'll have a go at it, I know quite a few already, and I know how hard it can be learning a new form, but that doesn't detract from your superb effort, well done, blessings Roy

Comment from BOO ghost
A reverse poem, I like this! Like the mask. A metaphor of a split personality, perhaps? Or a good or evil face. Pretty picture. This is a cool concept. The poem is not over when you think it's over! Everything comes to the beginning. Wish I had six stars, only a virtual six is all I have, this is a work of art, something unique.
BOO!

Hi Jessica
Yes, it looks like going forward that she's falling apart after she said she was fine and then going backwards. It looks like she's fine.
I never thought about writing a poem like that. And I still don't ha ha
I guess I'm just lazy. I'm stuck in my style and I wish I could branch out sometimes and do something different.
But, at my age learning something new isn't that easy
That's very clever and takes a lot of thought and foresight to write a poem like this. I'm impressed
I enjoyed reading your poem
Good job. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Jesse James Doty
Wow, you were right. I first read down the sparse lines which had one meaning and then read back upwards and the meaning was quite different. You've achieved success!
This style of poetry must be difficult to accomplish and you did an extraordinary job! One way you are fine and then done like magic is not fine.
Great accomplishment!
