The error is probably earlier in the file.  Check your last few
uncommented lines before this point.

Well  you just tried to redefine 3.2.1.in-addr.arpa.

If you want/*need* to delegate less than a /24 see
draft-ietf-cidrd-classless-inaddr-01.txt (I think there's
a newer release out)

From the description of what you want to do there is no reason
for you to try and maintain separate reverse zones for those
domains.
