I was astounded (and flattered). Here, with her permission, is The Pericles Commission, the Erasure Poem version, by Kitty:

lay facedown in the dirt
shot through the heart.
The body was warm to my touch
his wound, slippery and wet
I heard the footsteps of someone coming
perhaps the killer
I stepped backward to take cover
How did she create this? Here's the first page of The Pericles Commission, with a few erasures:

WOO-HOO! I'm famous :) Thanks!
It's a work of art, Kitty.
Every book should have a poem based on the first page as part of the blurb.
RWMG-yes!!!!
This is fun! You might also like "The Humument" which is similar in spirit, but is more about the visuals than the writing (in my opinion) but cool anyway:
