Reverse quatrains

A chapter in the book Love of Animals

Kitty beats Tiger

by Bucketlist

This picture gives a different view
The tiger doesn't know what to do
With the way the other cat lives
A different view this picture gives

In this match it's Kitty, quick hitter
So Tiger's the one who's the sitter
Fights between cats are never pretty
The quick hitter in this match is Kitty

Out in nature it would be the reverse
Kitty would likely be needing a hearse
Since Tiger is only a stuffed creature
It would be the reverse out in nature

first line is reversed in the fourth line.

Example Poem

Heartfelt (Swap Quatrain)

His clothes did stink, his coat was old
He came inside to leave the cold.
He needed food he needed drink.
His coat was old his clothes did stink.
