Austin Kleon is an artist and writer who came up with a very unique form of poetry, Newspaper Blackout. He takes a newspaper article, redacts some words and phrases, and voila! Poetry. So I tried to do a version of my own, using Mercutio's "Queen Mab" speech from
Romeo and Juliet.
It's so interesting.
ReplyDeleteI heard about this method before, but I didn't really see it.
It's a good poem. I like it.
Thanks!! Isn't a cool style? It's fun and easy to do and you don't have to be a poet to do it :)
ReplyDeleteI've never heard about this kind of poetry before, but then again I don't really read poetry that often haha. It's a very unique style of writing!
