Blackout Poetry

Blackout Poetry is one of my favorite things to do when I am stuck in a rut. It is the same thing I previously posted as Altered Pages as this style of art has many names.  It is a fantastic way for anyone to find a different meaning within a given text.

You start with a page from a novel.  Then you look for words inside the text that create a poem of sorts.  You circle those words and the draw/paint artwork around it.  You can use whatever art style you like and use the images you add to help illustrate the found poem.

I like to keep a few pages to work on here and there.  Like a word search with no clues or correct answers, that you get to colour.

The invasion chilled out hearts. It had twin rockets in cheap cardboard tubes. Everything was murder and mayhem. Children scattered, fell down and wished it was beautiful.

The war plants came and attended the sale saying "You didn't stand a chance"

The mystery was out in the hiding place. A world left exploded by imagination and discarded toys. Cats and kittens cast shady thoughts of loneliness.

She was small but determined. People had known and never tolerated Mary. After the fighting she shook her head for he had just noticed her.

The surface of her mind unraveled, spiraling it hit the bottom. Not one heard the sound, felt the texture of her torn out mind. Foolish child that is fine.

Warped pockets of nature in the room was quite monstrous. It consumed everything.
