Abstract

A portfolio of poems addressing ekphrasis, composed in free verse and in some received forms, including a prose poem series. The formal poems include the sonnet, sestina, Japanese cinquain, pantoum and common meter. The prose poems use both a paragraph format and monostitchs. While ekphrasis is a persistent concern, some poems extend media such as photograph and still life into a trope for actively accumulating image.
