It Is What It Is An Ekphrasis

IT IS WHAT IT IS an Ekphrasis Without narrative, isolated as is moments of figuration.. sunlight on the side of a wall.. frozen in time..conversations of unheard voices. Within, stillness and a paradox.. a welcome to the world to come inside.. to reside.. commune. This interplay of imagination.. soundless tunes..emblematic silences..symbolism saturated with suggestion. Soft realism where an inner life slowly cries..gestates.. to lay forever on canvas..the whole answer..there... before our eyes. An Ekphrasis trbute to the art of Edward Hopper You may hear me recite this and many of my PS anthology on youtube under my pen name ichthyschiro Read over 250 of my short forms @strand poet on twitter
