Blackout Poetry Competition Winner July 2022

Our 3rd Blackout Poetry Competition was just as much fun to run as the first two! Head over to our Patreon, Twitter, or Instagram to see the runners up and special mention entries!

Now we get the honour of announcing the winner;

Congratulations to Conny Borgelioen!

Conny’s winning poem is brilliant and you can read it immediately below.

The Force of Change

The text making up the poem is outlined cleanly by an abstract background of warm natural colours, mostly yellows. 3 round objects resembling cells of different sizes are scattered across the page.
 

Poem Transcript:

The force of change

Cells burning know to seek

according to need, they take heat

must adapt to grow

Burrowing into new soils

they become too great, augmented

and changed, the plant and the grower

pause a moment

to calculate the day and night.

 

You can find more from Conny on her Website, and give her a follow over on Instagram.
