In Nov 2023, I participated in an art and poetry workshop. One activity was to choose one of the poems that the facilitator brought and create a blackout poem from it.
The poem I chose was A Litany for Survival by Audre Lorde. The following poem was inspired from her poem:
For those of us
Learning to survive,
We are afraid the sun
Might not rise.
We are afraid
Love will vanish.
We are afraid
Our words will not be welcomed.
We are silent -
We are afraid to speak,
To survive.
