Discrete Yet Beloved An Ekphrasis

DISCRETE YET BELOVED-an Ekphrasis
Separate, apart yet together,
two side of one coin.
Two opposites of self,one
inner, within
one outer, without.
A common humanity,yet
unique,individual discrete.
A child in God's eyes,
set apart.. yet beloved

An ekphrasis tribute to and inspired by the poet Eli Siegel (author in 1925 of what can be only described as a my footle form entitled  'ONE QUESTION)
You may hear me recite this and most of my PS poetry on youtube under my pen name ichthyschiro.
