Mirror poetry, also known as “palindromic poetry” or “reverse poetry,” is a form of poetry in which the lines of the poem read the same way forwards and backwards. This means that the first line of the poem is the same as the last line, the second line is the same as the second-to-last line, and so on.

Mirror poetry can be challenging to write, as the poet must carefully choose words and phrases that can be read both forwards and backwards without losing their meaning or changing the intended message of the poem. It also requires a great deal of attention to the structure and rhythm of the poem, as the lines must flow smoothly in both directions.

Mirror poetry can be used to explore themes of reflection, symmetry, and duality. It can also be a fun and creative way for poets to experiment with language and form. When read aloud, mirror poetry can create a hypnotic effect, drawing the listener into the mirrored world of the poem and inviting them to see things from a new perspective.
