Four identical pixelated white text blocks reading "i dont know who to love" on solid blue-purple background. Each block has small cyan square and dot decorations: top-right corner of each panel contains two overlapping squares (one larger, one smaller) with a single dot below; bottom-left corner of each panel contains three stacked elements (a large square, medium square, and dot). Text uses lowercase letters except for the first letter of "dont" which is also lowercase. All four panels are identical in layout and content.
