THE HANGED MAN

This image shows a blackout poem created against a collage. The majority of the original page of text has been drawn over in black marker, or collaged over with large images of fish and a seaside landscape. Select words and phrases have been left uncovered, forming a poetic message against the collaged background.

and I
the Sailor
by Water

the Fisher
King.

Is the wind still?
