Blackout Poetry Maker

Blackout Poetry Maker lets you paste any text and tap the words to keep; the rest is blacked out, revealing a found poem you can download as an image. It runs entirely in your browser.

Create blackout (or “found”) poetry from any text. Paste a page — an article, a book excerpt, song lyrics, an old email — then tap the words you want to keep; everything else gets redacted with black bars, leaving a poem hidden inside the original. Toggle between editing and the finished blackout view, then download your poem as an image to print or share. It’s a calming, creative writing exercise, and it all happens in your browser.
