Blackout Poetry · May 7, 2022

A blackout poem made from a page of Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman. The page is colored in blue marker except for the words that remain. A large black and white photo of a man in a hat holding up his hands is pasted on the page. There is also a red hand shape and two drawings of snakes.

there is something else very great,
beyond materials, and with continuous hands
in the earth
each for its kind
the seen,
flickering around me
holds me to him
