guys in english class we had to make erasure poetry and it was very cool and very nice. my teacher gave us each a (printed) page from the great gatsby and i dont exactly remember what i ended up making but it was like "dreams remain even as the earth dissolves and becomes constant in the air around us" and then i drew an image of the earth dissolving in the black/erasure parts and my teacher read it and she was like "oooh oh my god *my name*. very poetic!!"
and i still feel really happy about that even though this happened a week ago :)
sadly she took the paper though so i cant show you guys but i'm glad she liked it because my classmates were mostly messing around and half-assing the activity so i'm glad i took it seriously :)
