The image shows a blackout poetry piece created on a page of text. The upper two-thirds of the page is heavily obscured with black paint or ink, leaving only small isolated words visible. The bottom third of the page remains mostly unaltered, with the original text clearly legible. The black markings have an uneven, brushstroke-like texture, creating a stark contrast with the white paper and exposed text.
