Description:

A USA only version was requested, so here it is. If you're from outside the US, please join my international one. 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. NOTE: The "poem" isn't usually the actual length of a poem, but a few sentences at most.

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

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!
