Blackout Poetry · June 14, 2022

A blackout poem made from a page of Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman. The page is covered by an image of white plants and flowers on a blue background (like sun art). Spaces are cut from the paper for the words.

By Julia Falkner ’19

As I went forth   as I beheld
As I bathed
As I roam’d
glory
I still warble
at thy portals
I kiss and kiss the sweet
eyes
of all of earth,
