Blackout Poetry Swap

In this swap, you will send your partner one Blackout poem that you have created.

What is a Blackout poem you ask? Here is the basic idea of what you do to create one: you take any piece of literature (book page, newspaper clipping, page from a magazine, etc.) and then you go through and underline the words you want to create a phrase or a sentence or two. Draw boxes around those words, and then with a Sharpie or other marker you color on them so you can only read the words you want.

If you're still unsure of what to do, search #blackoutpoetry on Instagram, do a Google image search or go to http://www.makeblackoutpoetry.com/

Newbies are welcome with a well filled out profile. No excessive 1s or 3s, I DO CHECK! As Swap Coordinator, I reserve the right to ban anyone that I find suspicious or that I believe may not follow through on their obligations for the swap. Happy Swapping!
