Did some black out poetry in work today

(I accidentally overdrew on the second poem, the alt text has the complete version I intended)
A print of The Forge by Seamus Heaney but all the words are redacted except for this: All I know is Outside The unpredictable. Somewhere in the centre, Set there immoveable: Shape and music A print of Thatcher by Seamus Heaney but all the words are redacted except for this: Spoke unexpectedly with light knives. Eyed, opened and flicked . It seemed he spent the morning warming up. Laid out blades snipped and sharpened For pinning down his world, Stitched all together, a stubble patch.

So I learned how to do a mini zine in work. I did a mash up of Seamus Heaney's and Placebo's 36 Degrees video. Light-hearted.
Front cover of a zine called Punishment. The picture is a silhouette of a woman with a blindfold on, blindfold is bright against the silhouetted woman. First two pages of the zine. The pictures are of a rope against darkness and of a hand grabbing muddy ground. These verses are written: I can feel the tug of the halter at the nape of her neck, the wind on her naked front. It blows her nipples to amber beads, it shakes the frail rigging of her ribs. I can see her drowned body in the bog, the weighing stone, the floating rods and boughs. Middle two pages of the zine. The pictures are of a woman with a shaved head from behind and of a person in water arching back so the top of their head is submerged, their arms are spread. The following verses are written: Under which at first she was a barked sapling that is dug up oak-bone, brain-firkin: her shaved head like a stubble of black corn, her blindfold a soiled bandage, her noose a ring to store the memories of love. Little adulteress, before they punished you you were flaxen-haired, undernourished, and your tar-black face was beautiful. My poor scapegoat, The final two pages of the zine. The pictures are of a silhouette of a woman tied to some railings and a cluster of strewn newspapers. The following verses are written: I almost love you but would have cast, I know, the stones of silence. I am the artful voyeur of your brains exposed and darkened combs, your muscles’ webbing and all your numbered bones: I who have stood dumb when your betraying sisters, cauled in tar, wept by the railings, who would connive in civilized outrage yet understand the exact and tribal, intimate revenge.

He said no and I exited the video.
A screenshot of Rudy Ayoub, an attractive Youtuber, during a Q+A video where he's asked "Are you gay?" The red part of the progress bar shows almost none of the video was watched.
