09/01/25 A New Palindrome Poem for a New Day

Silent men
Make monsters
Scream
Monsters make
Men silent

This is my first go at a palindrome poem. The idea is that after a certain hinge word (in my case “scream”) the rest of the poem repeats the same words backwards.

Blast from the Past:

Must we feign surprise
When monsters return after
We bred them so long?
