Backwards

If you have read
all of my poems
backwards,
then you'll know
what I have secretly written
in an alien, and as yet not invented
language.

and if you love me, why
you're crazier than I am

you must know by what I've written
that I can not be saved.

It was your love
that kept me from the garbage can
in the first place,
and no,
I'm not just trying
to write another song,
so
please don't read me
backwards.
