drink deep of / my devotion

This image shows a blackout poetry piece created on a page of Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein”. The text is predominantly drawn over with black marker, with visible brushstrokes. Various clippings have been collaged across the margins and obscured sections of the text. Select words and phrases have been left uncovered, creating a new poetic message against the drawn-over and collaged background.

the white plain

Cold,
destined to endure
