I can't even begin to explain why the idea of the words 'erasure' and 'poetry' put next to each other gives me shivers of delight.
Instead of notes to other people, I might reconsider what I'd do with the last book left me.
Anyway:
1. The context
2. The post where I found out about it
3. And an example of erasure poetry, in 17 year old Efrain's work below:
4. The two poems he's used: 'Special Treatments Ward' by Dana Gioia (top) and 'The Obsoletion of a Language' by Kay Ryan (above).
Oh frabjous day! This might even induce me to write that War Horse post.
