My first attempt at concrete poetry, submitted to :iconwriters-workshop:'s concrete poetry workshop.

The guidance was to try to re-structure a poem you had already written. Unfortunately, much of what I've written is pretty long, and I think this would have been more effective if I'd had something shorter to work with. Still, I enjoyed reworking an older piece, as it did help to add a new dimension of meaning to it for me.

EDIT: so I changed the picture to leave out any of the bold bits in the skirt. I've kept the shading on the legs, bevcause I don't think that was as confusing as the shading in the skirt =)

EDIT 2: Wow, DD?? Seriously?? Totally gobsmacked! Thank you to everyone for the lovely comments and the faves! Totally made my week =D This has definitely encouraged me to experiment more with concrete poetry!
