Mike Bayles Poet Verse

Ruins

man in alley
discarded
lives alone
wind sings
harsh song
winter calls
he bears weight
old worn coat
he dreams
of a home
dreams he
coat worn old
weight he bears
calls winter
song harsh
sings wind
alone lives
discarded
alley in man

Andrea Dietrich March 1, 2016 at 3:47 PM oh I see what you have done here. Isn't this palindrome? Something like that? Where you mirror the top half of the poem? I want to find another one like that first one i read today. I really like this one, by the way.
