Seeking Safety

The image shows a page from a book or document with the number 584 and the word "ETIQUETTE" visible at the top. Most of the text on the page is obscured by a large, irregular black shape that covers the majority of the page. Small portions of text are left visible through oval-shaped openings in the black overlay, creating a "blackout poetry" effect. Around the edges of the black shape are several small, hand-drawn pink hearts.

using these signals.
