Simple Sunday Goes Classical!
This week Simple Sunday makes a slight departure and features a photograph of classical sculpture!
How to interpret this? Especially with the little addition at bottom right?
Give your muse a look and see what happens poetically!
And do click on the heart at the top of this blog if it strikes your fancy!
HEADS UP
Heads on top
Body to the side
Stature on me right
Full body figure
Over there
And whats that
I see
Oh my my
Yet another head
Why am I like this
You run me so raggy
I dont even know
Where the heck
I be half the time
Part of me here
The other part
Sum where else
And you wonder
Why

INTERACTIVE
Billy’s mommy hated spurious.
Homeschooled Billy was so curious.
She took Billy to the museum
So real artworks he could see ’em.
Classical scupture caught his eye.
One looked like mommy, Bill said “Hi!”
A torso made him think of dad
the muscleman; well just a tad.
Billy wondered “how did they do it?”
Plastocene, or did they glue it?
To show that he had been inspired,
though he knew naught of clay kiln fired,
he cut with care construction paper,
using crayons as his draper;
taped his creation to the case
so art patrons could see his face!

RUNAWAY ROLLER
They were made of sturdy stone.
He was only flesh and bone.
When steamroller’s brakes went out
there was no time to even shout.
Nor was there time to beg one’s pardon,
when roller rammed through sculpture garden.
Heads and torsos broke apart,
rolling into the Auto Mart.
Mr. Bill was caught off guard
and squashed quite flat near Scotland Yard.
To commemmorate some way
Great Steamroller Rampage Day,
Garden owner paid to fill
display case with ruins, and Mr. Bill.

Classic Scrultures vs Modern Doll
Classic scrultrues with history read
A scrultured head with chest free
Another with only neck be
A body from waist line no head for thee
One aged that looks worn out feel the greed
A doll with all parts arms open hug me
THE CLASSICAL SCULPTURE OF ME
classical sculpture
Of what use ta be me
All over the place
Eyes and ears
Lookin listenin
Body over here doin the dishes
One hand typin away
Other on pots and pan
Gotta git it done
All at once
Yet little at time be
Busy busy
All day long
Three in the morin
Still aint done
Oh whooo wit me
Mind on money
But cant fine
Heart on love
Oh where is the love
Soul on fire
For a better place
Oh when do I git rest
Disembodied
Fine the pieces
Put back
Most
But mind still gone
