When?

Event
A blackout poem created from a typewritten text. Most of the text is covered with black lines, leaving visible phrases that read: “a roof / morning. / Autumn. /the crack of  shells / a hammer/ splitting it open.” The background is a light beige color, and the remaining words form a poem evoking the sounds and imagery of autumn.
