Blackout Poetry Again

The tree image on the left is Little Branches by C.B. Wentworth. The one on the right is my first attempt in digital blackout poetry. 

A Challenge

I think the most challenging part of this project for me was finding a text digitally to use with my blackout poetry. I also struggled to find an image that I felt matched the content of my poem. I hope my students will give it a try. 

Still, an advantage of digital blackout poetry is that I didn't have to draw a guy jumping. I love how C.B. Wentworth created his little branches and trees in his poem, but I could never do anything similar. Therefore, digital offers a way for non-artist types like myself to create images to match our poems.
