Today’s poetry prompt is: Let’s write a blackout poem. Here is what it is from one of the experts Austin Kleon
If you have a newpaper, magazine, something with writing, you can create a blackout poem. You could even create a collage.
Here is one I created a good while ago while at the coffee shop.
I took this and wrote a little more:
separate thinking
although different styles play
we all want something
…
The form I used was senryu. Not all people write an edited poem from their blackout and one of the beauties is to find a way to make it stand alone. Either way it is a win!
Show me your blackout poetry or just write and share! It’s all good!
