The photo collage was made in 2013.
Medusa and the Whistle
If this head could talk,
what would it say?
Game on?
Try me?
Don’t get in my way?
~ ~ ~
If snakes break free,
What would they do?
Would they bite?
Hiss?
Would they chew?
~ ~ ~ ~
Gold board set,
Tetris cubes drop.
Mesh them if you can.
Thoughts bounce,
Coils hop.
Game over.
Start again.
~ ~ ~ ~
Are we all on the same team?
Or rivals til the end?
Chick with a whistle dug in good,
And coiled snakes don’t bend.
~ ~ ~ ~
Maybe the just the right tune
Can make snakes swoon?
But if off on the tone,
Your soul’s turned to stone.
Beautiful poem! I really enjoyed both the message and the form. The subtle rhyme works really well.
