dVerse Poets

Being geeked with the busts made out of so many materials, in so many styles, with so many ways of communicating “issues tied to identity, mortality, power, and history,” I thought it would make a wonderful prompt. Searching through the dVerse archives, I found this most excellent prompt by Victoria C. Slotto from 2012, titled, “Sculpting a Poem.” After reading it, I realized I didn’t need to reinvent the wheel. Thank you, Victoria! I encourage you to read her prompt for guidance today.

dance in many forms

seeing movement in the dress

swirling gold fabric

arms steadying her high kick

sculpture depicts happy strength
