Untitled (Palindrome)

Rat swollen apart named Ore
Gods' top meeting
Idle hate ipso
Retro permute volts
Dime tons
Radars note midst love
Tum report Eros' Pieta held
Ignite 'em
Pots
Dog erode mantra
Panel low star

Is it that bad for my first attempt of a palindrome?

    Interesting concept. What a shame it's not executed with a bit more cleverness. Some words are Latin... It would be great if you could write a palindrome poem and have it make sense and mean something.

    Nice idea

    Wow, at first I was like, "what does this mean?" but then I realized... wow, the form is brilliantly done. Must have taken a lot of thought.

    I would love to say I understand it, but I can't seem to grasp the meaning. Oh well, back to reading it again. I applaud the palindrome, by the way, I know I couldn't even begin to write something like this.

    I appreciate how hard this is because I've done it before too, but this just doesn't make sense still fun to read and thanks for entering.

      Heh, another one who says the same. Actually, I've received a review of this poem by someone who's not here in AP and actually found the sense to this poem, but it's fine if you don't understand it. Nobody understood Einstein when he was young, right?

        Whoa, look, I read it a few times and it didn't make any sense to me. If I analyzed it I could probably find sense in it. If you try hard enough you can make sense of anything.

        But you yourself even said it was senseless. "warning... senseless language usage inside" sound familiar?

        And no need to compare yourself to Einstein in regards to poetry, sheesh.

        I did like the poem, I don't know why you took offense to my comment. Sorry.

    i don't really understand what you're trying to write about, but the whole palindrome thing really impressed me. i can't imagine how long it would've taken you to write this. best of luck in the contest.

    This is really great! I've never seen one this long before.
    As for a name, I haven't the foggiest. But I think it should be a palindrome itself if it were possible.

    Hah! That's one amazing palindrome right there. I'm absolutely terrible at trying to make these, it takes real imagination to do something like this.

    I'm impressed with this nonsensical palindrome. You really turn the language upside down.
    Well done and good luck!

      a palindrome is a phrase, word, or sentence that reads exactly the same forwards as it does backwards.
