Inspiration point (IP)
This week's Inspiration Point is inspired by onemorething's forum post on a poetry competition: the Artlyst Art to Poetry Award for ekphrastic poetry, and by a wonderful example which she's written.
Here's her post wth all the links:

and here's her poem:

You can, of course, translate the genre into prose too. Good luck!
