It’s poetry month and I have been listening to an interview with Mary Ruefle on National Radio. And I have been learning about Mary Ruefle’s life and work and her Erasure Poetry . (http://www.poetryfoundation.org/bio/mary-ruefle)
Here is my version of Erasure Poetry, using the text from my previous post (https://silkannthreades.wordpress.com/2013/04/11/happy-birthday-to-a-special-friend/)
Special
Shame on me! I had forgotten.
Sincere apologies, my dear friend,
joy of being.
We agreed to love and care throughout life.
Pity human
