Mr., Backward is about a man who does everything backwards. He never does any thing right. For example: He never wakes up, he always wakes down (Florian, 2004). That is what it is about. Now I will tell you the poem. Mr. Backward by Douglas Florian. (Florian, 2004) Mr. Backward lives in town. He never wakes up, he always wakes down. He eats dessert before his meal. His plastic plants and flowers are real. He takes a bath inside his sink, and cleans his cloths with purple ink. He wears his on his nose, and a woolen scarf around his toes. He loves his gloves worn inside out. He combs his hair with sauerkraut. His black dog is covered green. His grandma is seventeen. He rakes his leaves still on the trees. He bakes a cake with antifreeze. He goes to sleep beneath his bead. While wearing slippers on his head. That is the poem “Mr. Backward. References: Douglas florian. (2001).
