Blackout Poetry · June 7, 2022

A blackout poem made from a page of Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman. Words are blacked out with marker. At the bottom an image is glued, featuring a fish and two birds.

I swear to you there are divine things more beautiful than words can tell.
welcome
full sail
gayety
— the burial waits no longer.
He
me
he or she
you
may come who come
here.
