A Letter-Based Palindrome Ketek

…
Hand holding his overpowering feelings /
Hurting me /
Blaming emotions /
Blaming me /
Hurt feelings overpowering his held hand /

Self abandonment /
Imagine an altar to wants, those buried needs /
Others always given your priority /
You’re giving always, others’ needs burying those wants /
To alter an imagined, abandoned self /

Made an ameteur attempt at writing a Ketek about the Brandy sand man himself.

Slowly breaking, I must fall. Fall must I, breaking slowly.

I composed this ketek mostly by accident lol. I love that this subreddit exists!

...
Mind still /
What do I want? /
Only my friend, Beloved friend /
My only want /
I do what stills minds

I did, didn’t I?
No yeah / I saved… I… / Yeah no /
I didn’t, did I?
...
To non-native English speakers: I am very sorry.

“No yeah” means yes.
“Yeah no” means no.

English is not a real language. It’s several languages in a trench coat, occasionally lurking in dark alleys to steal loose grammar.

Revenge of yourself, absolute hatred burning, break cycles unbroken, burn hatred, absolve yourself of revenge

Seems like a stretch, but it's always been my understanding that as long as the root word is preserved it's still holly

Fated is Death to rule the followers, following the rules to death is fate.

Silent, now to dear peace in quiet places, laying weapons gainly, placed quietly in peace, dare to now listen

These two are a part of a few keteks I wrote as a companion piece for Long Way Down. Long Way Down is a narrative poetry book about the cycle of violence wherein the main character follows the 'Rules' to get revenge on his brother.

Throughout the book, the main character, Will, refers to many anagrams he wrote when he was younger. To me, they functioned as reminders of his innocence, so anagrams here are used to break the symmetry, the 'cycle of violence' if you will.

Each word that it typically mirrored in the second ketek is an anagram of its mirror.

First ketek of an in world collection I'm writing about war and it's effects called: "Keteks of The War, Worthy of keteks" (A phonetic mirroring in 'the war' to 'worthy'. Bit of a stretch, but it makes the whole collection holly)

Meaning of loss, it's, in a way, twisted, twisting away in its loss of meaning.

Odium reigns warring

men of honor die

death of Honor

men of war

Reign, Odium.

(Nearly as bad as slant rhymes, I'll admit.)

Does this count?

The idea of using the famous palindrome “A man, a plan, a canal, Panama” popped into my head. I noticed it had distinct sections, but only four. It is also (obviously) a letter-based palindrome, rather than a word-based one.

I realized I could add a fifth middle-section that followed either of the following structures:
• “Aca+[palindrome]”
• “A ca+[palindrome]”
The [palindrome] could be of any length or number of words so long it started “ca” or “aca”.

I came up with, “A call”, “A career”, “A cat”, “A car”, and “A canon”, but none for “Aca+[palindrome]”

I generally assume the “man” is Theodore Roosevelt. So, “A call” or “A career” seemed to work best.

Can anyone think of other things that fit? And more importantly, does it count?

(I think not)

At least it looks pretty in the women’s script.

Now die
Don’t move
Finally break
Don’t survive—
No.
Survive
Don’t break
Finally move
Don’t die now

Reading taking again my sleep

Yet wanting me to escape and explore.

Yielding, exploring this escape

I want sleep

Yet I, again, take to reading

Little found pieces created of world, find peace, find worlds, of creation’s pieces, found little

In life we toil at the dream,
‘Create the lost paradise,’
Ignorant of the paradise we lost,
Creating dreams and
Toiling all our lives.

Please me

Tell you love spending time with me

Blessings to you, while you too bless me

With time spent loving you

Tell me, please
