Mother Finished

The image shows a page from a book about visiting cards and etiquette. Drawing on top of the text, the page is framed by drawn red curtains, with a block of brown on the bottom half to represent a stage. The text is mostly visible through the colorful background, but some words are circled in white-out to create a blackout poetry effect.
