(from notes taken at an exhibit in September 1997 at the Metropolitan Museum of Alfred Stieglitz’s portraits of Georgia O’Keefe)
Georgia O’Keefe’s hands
with a thimble
pinching cloth
into vaginas
hands like flowers
her fingers are petals
her wrist the stem
against her car
her hands like
curved chrome
framing black tires
lined knuckles
holding a corncob
smooth woman hands
against tree bark
one where she works
peeling vegetables
