Happy Palindrome Day

Because today is a palindrome day (11/02/2011), I decided to write a poem in honour of the occasion. So here it is:

Palindrome

Fall back, flow forth,
Palindrome, chiasmus, sway
From end to end,
Distended, pure.
May I, small atom, sit between
These equal walls of symmetry,
A point of stillness fixed amid
The sameness and the mirrored grace
Of what once was, now once again.

(M Pullar 2011)
