Top spot.
So many dynamos.
We few,
deified.
I saw I was I,
never odd or even.
Level.

Awesome poem - every line a palindrome, and yet it not only makes sense individually and as a whole, but is judged powerful in its rendering. Well done!
ReplyDeleteGospelwriter! You blew my cover!
ReplyDeleteIs it on Wikileaks already! Haha!
I have a friend on that wall
ReplyDeleteYou worked hard on this one
good for you
Two thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Love both poetry and image too, they certainly goes well with each other for sure!=D
ReplyDeleteThere is a name on that wall ...

Rest in peace, Denny.
so cleverly thoughtful-and now I know what a palindrome is....once again Stafford educates!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and Happy New Year!

ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Stafford to you and your family. This poem hit home and it was beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThis is very clever!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Chrissy, Stafford and a Very Happy New Year.
I'm at a loss.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand it.
I hate that.
I so want to understand it.
Do all these people really understand it?
They must.
It SOUNDS beautiful read aloud.
Perhaps some further pondering will clear it up.
Hippy Hoppy Christmas Ford

Very clever Staffo - haha - must have taken a bit to work that one out :)
