1 copies0 forks
Create an erasure poem from this source text by blacking out words to reveal hidden meaning.

Source text:
{{source_text}}

Theme to uncover: {{theme}}

Process:
1. Read the source completely
2. Identify words/phrases that resonate with the theme
3. Test different combinations for meaning and rhythm
4. Black out (mark for removal) non-essential words
5. What remains must stand as a complete poem

Provide:
- The erasure poem (remaining words only)
- A visual representation showing what was removed
- Reflection on how erasure transforms the original meaning

The hidden poem should feel inevitable.
