Peace Palindrome
1. Palindrome The technical definition of a palindrome is a word or phrase that reads the same forward as it does backward This project embodies the general essence of a palindrome because the sentences can be read from top to bottom as well as from bottom to top. While the sentences are not inverted, (they are still read from left to right) the lines of the prose poem are inverted for a new message.
2. The actions a person participates in with a group may express one thing (forward), but that person’s individual thoughts or motives may have different meanings (backward). Thus, it parallels a palindrome.

10. If we can potentially arouse an emotional response in just a single new person, it would be worthwhile. On any one day, Our thoughts, which we turned into words, have provoked another to think, possibly that was you, so Now
11. Voice what is racing through your mind and the minds of others like you Can you be heard by those who have enough influence to Inspire a change. CHANGE
12. At this point in time, even a small change would be welcome So we need to take steps that would facilitate these changes and All we want is for an individual to change their line of thinking in the course of the day Raising concern in the minds of multiple people would be a success. But really…
13. Getting enough support to make this stand so it could garnish significant publicity would be challenging So there comes a point when it must be realized that The ideal situation can’t always be reached. For us right now, that is the goal, to simply stand here with this handful of people because
14. We will find individuals who share the same beliefs and There is hope that As people drive by in their cars or pass by on the street We can be seen taking a stand Hopefully that way, many more will go away realizing “War is Not the Answer.”
15. The sooner more people feel comfortable openly expressing this The sooner it gets dramatically obvious to those who have the power That we want our troops home and It is mostly because, “War is Not the Answer”
