An exercise ,a simple idea , write something and the repeat it in reverse order line by line ,like below I demonstrated the concept. One of those crazy writer games I like to play. sometimes I try to make it mean the same read in either directions ,or have it say something different read one way as opposed to reading it in the opposite direction.

example

I struggled so much in my life . Seems like it is something I must to bear

because so many disagree with the narrative

or perhaps is it that others just don’t care

The burden to say yes, I am alright , or I have the right

I fail to see what it takes from anyone or lessons the load on humanity or my

inability to circumvent my plight

I don’t know all the answers ,I still question myself

I try hard to be as diplomatic about my reasons

It is just the way I came off the shelf

These things are not imperfections in an already imperfect life

it is all in the way you see it it could be your dreams or your sacrifice

no one is wrong here ,there is no biblical sin,

the only one that it should matter to

thats a good place to begin
