Unrequited

A piece of blackout poetry where the page is covered in stripes of paper, with a few words visible, connected with black marker and drawings of black birds. There is one image of a man holding a woman's face, and another image of someone with a white heart surrounded by a yellow snake in front of them.

Unrequited

beaten gold-leaf

iced atmosphere

he would have held her chin in his hand.
