yes, the words are backwards, the syntax is backwards, and i wrote it from bottom to top, but it shares a message i think we can all understand.

one word isn't backwards. =)

this is outstanding! your point is made in penning the words. It is made powerful by the visual of penning it backwards. In the last days right will be wrong and wrong with be right...and so on. Here we are on the threshold looking into the abyss and the words are flowing backwards! No wonder life does'nt make sense to those who see it with love in their hearts. To spin and spin backwards is the vile! It makes one truly sick. Great, Brilliant, and Profound. kathy
