BLACK DECONSTRUCTION PAPER
I.
piles to shred or burn
evidence of what once was
dated documents
damning dead- end paper trails
confiscated in Ex- raid
II.
misleading message
words redacted, retracted
censored sentiments
love letters blotted-out- black
erasure poem format
III.
potential pen pal
edited my manuscript
with black hi- lighter
once a novel idea;
now disjointed adjectives
