what if take 2.

“rough edges” by Elise Siegul.

Tonight’s prompt from Lisa @ #dverspoetrypub has looking at the bust she saw on a museum visits.

i have gone with the ekphrastic option because the picture rough edges by Elise Siegul reminded me of one of my older poems. here is a reworked version.

WHAT IF? Type 2
#EliseSiegul, #dversepoetrypub, #ekphastric,

What if the planet was just,
A disembodied head?
And us its many, many voices
What if you the master of the many?
Yes master of many crazy 🤪 voices,
Were the master of that head?
Would she be heard over the masses?
Or Could 7 billion voices in this head be wrong?
YES
