An Existential Palindrome
April 26, 2024
Is it what it is?
Why try to win, to try? Why?
Do we live to die? No! Die to live, we do
Exactly what gives life a meaning? A life gives what, exactly?
Purpose, and place? Pain, place and purpose
Is there something more? Something, there is
Life: living about care-free, care about living life

This unique poem is not a traditional palindrome, but if you read the words in each line, you'll see that they can be read the same backwards and forwards.
Traditionally, a palindrome is a sequence, or a word that is the same forwards, as it is backwards.
Example: the fear of palindromes is "aibohphobia" which is spelled the same backwards.
This whole week has been full of palindromes: "4-20-24," through "4-29-24" are all examples of a palindromic sequence.
