update: After reading chromatic's and wondering why he took the first letter using substr instead choping the last letter I went back and re-read the question... the light came on! I'm rotating the word in the wrong direction. sigh.

Using chop and what I learned reading chromatic's post, I give you the one liner: 

$temp = chop($word) . $temp, print "$temp$word\n" while $word;

# $temp and $word should, of course, be initialized.
