I've been playing around with different forms of poetry and using Writer's Digest for inspiration. Palindrome poetry is intriguing and fun, but it's definitely not as easy as I thought it would be.

The rules are as follows:

1. You must use the same words in the first half of the poem as the second half, but

2. Reverse the order for the second half, and

3. Use a word in the middle as a bridge from the first half to the second half of the poem.

Slice of Life Story

Day one is fun

Eager typing story

Words fly easy as pie

Can't wait for day two

Slice of Life Story

Day two is here

Blank space, fogs in head

Type. Delete. Type. Delete. Delete. Delete.

Google writer's block

Block writer's Google

Delete. Delete. Delete. Type. Delete. Type.

Head in fogs space blank

Here is day two

Story Life of Slice

Two day for wait can't

Pie as easy fly words

Story typing eager

Fun is one day

Story Life of Slice
