📖✨ Poetry Perspective ✨📖
Have you seen “Refugees” by Brian Bilston?
At first, when read top to bottom, the poem feels uncomfortable — expressing unwelcoming views and telling refugees to “go back.”
But then comes the powerful twist…
👉 “Now read from bottom to top.”
Suddenly, the message transforms into one of empathy, humanity, and welcome. 💛
A simple but powerful reminder of how perspective can change everything. 🌍
