Writing In Reverse

Unless I write the piece in reverse,
it fizzles and dies by line four.
There is something intriguing,
viciously perplexing,  
and tricky about
those Nonets that
cause me to
end up
stuck.

Now this is a delight read! It's discouraging when a poem gets stuck and you turn it round and round and end up discarding it. To find a way to rid yourself of writer's block -now that is a gem. Lovely write Brittany!
