News at Eleven: On some pages [William] Allegrezza literally

obliterates the text: large black letters and sometimes words appear on top of blocks of smaller text, rendering the background text illegible.

This blocking out of words serves as a reminder that we cannot have everything. We cannot access all the text on the page or catch all the references, allusions, and voices, but we are able to access that which remains -- the fragile replacements that exist in place of didactic conclusions.

from Bookslut: Fragile Replacements by William Allegrezza
