POEM STARTER

'Backwards'

Use this single word to inspire a poem.

Backwards

Everything was backwards

The world itself has started orbiting in an opposite direction


The people who smiled

Now frowning


The scars on my wrist

Rearranged spelling out help


The tears on my face going back into my eyes

Everything was backwards


The people who said they would stay

Gone


The world was backwards

Nothing was as it was before

Everything was backwards


But maybe it was for the best

The birds still flew

The sun still rose
