It Was Time Poem by Douglas Scotney
It Was Time
I'm reading a couple of classics
that I haven't as yet:
'84 and Moby Dick (or Plato) .
Re the versificator poem in '84,
the one that changes day to dye
and away to awye
and say to sye,
sye no more.
As for Moby D (or Plato) ,
I began beyond the start
and am reading the tale
backwards and forwards,
as a crew runs 'cutting-in
and attending to a whale'.
Moby D references from chapter numbers in the 70s.
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem

To read backwards you will reach the front. Then, you start again.
