Blackout Poetry · April 30, 2022

A poem made from a page of Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman. A collaged rocky texture covers the words. A closeup of a hand holding a rock is pasted on. There is a drawing of the moon at the top and a sticker of a cartoon dancer wearing red in the center.

The fields of art
rest as light
the rounding of the circle, (to surely start again,)
the mutable materials, changing, crumbling, re-cohering,
I or you
known or unknown
very human life,
whole or large or small
