A blackout poem made from a page of poetry by Emily Dickinson. The page is colored in in black marker, leaving only a few words remaining. On the top corners, torn golden floral-patterned paper is pasted. Tape with plants on it is on both of these sections. The top right corner has a sun made out of patterned yellow paper. On the bottom left corner, there is a black-and-white drawing of a car split into 3 sections. On the bottom right corner, art of a person with light skin and blue eyes staring forward is pasted. In the middle section where the poem is, simple gesture drawings of people are pasted, made to look like they are falling through the black.
