This is absolutely brilliant use of erasure. I responded a lot to “the Government/a dress/of grievance”
Thank you, Shaun. So funny! I just came from your page.
I’ve had two straight days of not being able to detach from the U.S. train wreck, so all I can think about is political fallout.
So well done. I love where you started and where you ended. Really powerful.
Thank you, Beatrice. I had no idea where this would go, so I found what emerged very interesting.
This is so interesting, Ellen. I really am intrigued with the process, but especially where it ended up!
Thanks, Nancy. I love doing erasures. Just another way to uncover the subconscious.
I love the disruption shown in this erasure.
And yes, the people grieve.
