Description:
 April is National Poetry Month.
To celebrate, we'll be creating our own blackout poetry. Blackout poetry is a mixture of poetry and art made by taking any form of printed text and blacking out the unwanted words to create a poem or statement.Use a black sharpie, colored pencils, paints, markers, or whatever you want to create your own blackout poem. There are truly no rules. Your poem can be as artistic or simple, or as serious or nonsensical as you choose. Anything goes!

No artistic or poetic skills are necessary.
