We were given the prompt of creating black out poetry for the February Art Walk. There was a big pile of newspaper to choose from and I picked an article on how to create the perfect resume. My method of creating this poem was to black out words until I found one that struck me and made sense with the previous words. I also blacked out the title of the article to create a title for my poem “Perfect”
Perfect
Focus on everyone who was ever important…
Perfection
That’s right, it’s your smile, you matter
While you believe that you’re lucky
Heres the bottom line: it’s up to you
