One Man Walking
An Upside-down Poem
Reverse poetry is a poem that can be read forward (top to bottom) and have one meaning but can also be read backward (bottom to top) and have a different or opposite meaning. The structure of the reverse poem is often the same.

One Man Walking In a Blizzard On a Quiet City street No Vehicles, No One, In Ragged Levis, A Red Heavy-Canvas Short Coat, With Cool Yellow Slush boots, He Walks Alone
In the Deep Ebony Night It is Quiet Ahead of Me Cold Wind, Snow Chilled to the Bone He steps, Steadfast, With a Mission In Silence
We Walk Sacredly Together, Visibly Alone Searching Knowledge, The Library of Wisdom, Within Us A Tedious Task The Streets are Winding, Dimly Lit
City Lights Between Us, Between Us I Say Hearts Flicker, Ice Pounds our Spirits, The Need to Know Souls Engulfed, Ancestral Knowledge Just Within Reach When Might the Storm End?
If you choose to you may — Buy me a coffee
