    I didn't like and between your words in that one line otherwise everything else looked fine to me. Also wasn't sure about the way you wrote it, your words worked nicely together in the first stanza yet when flipped it seemed as though it lost it's meaning. Why would dreams, and hopes and desires kill thoughts?! I understand though, it's the form that really throws a twist into the poem, the tricky part is finding the right words so that it makes sense both ways. I thought it was a nice poem however, just a few things I figured I'd point out. Nicely done..

    Aaah, so sorry! It must be too late for me or something to be commenting. Disregard what I said about it not reading right both ways, it makes a LOT of sense actually lol.. I'm so sorry, I rushed my comment or something! I don't see anything wrong then except for the 'and' situation! :) Well done!

    Hi Jad,

    I would skip one "and" and make it:
    dreams, desires and hope

    There is nothing wrong with this Palindrome, but it is a little short, other than that well done, the Palindrome is one of the most difficult formats.

    5/5 Ingrid
