See "CursorStyle" in fvwm(1).

BTW, if you use a shell in genuine xterm(1), then you can change
cursor colors/shape in Xresources...

  XTerm.VT100*foreground: rgb:af/af/a0
  XTerm.VT100*background: rgb:12/00/20
  XTerm.VT100*cursorColor: darkorange1
  XTerm.VT100*pointerColor: rgb:00/00/00
  XTerm.VT100*pointerColorBackground: rgb:b0/b0/00

background colors)...
