Digital Blackout Poetry

Digital Blackout Poetry - student project

After watching this class, I knew exactly what original piece I wanted to use, but 'sadly' I didn't have a damaged copy of Dylan Thomas poems, so I decided to attempt it digitally.

Last month, we dealt with the death of both my father-in-law and my mother, within two weeks of each other. My mother's funeral is tomorrow and she hated 'Do Not Go Gently Into The Good Night', she thought it was selfish.

Both deaths were after terminal illnesses, so it felt almost cathartic to blackout the original poem.
