Apropos Georgia O'Keeffe ifølge Smith

Dette digt af Patti Smith fik mig til at interessere mig for den amerikanske kunstner Georgia O'Keeffe, som havde en fin og følsom måde at arbejde med farver og former på ud fra skelletter, kranier, blomster og ørkenen i New Mexico...

GEORGIA O'KEEFFE

great lady painter

what she do now

she goes out with a stick

and kills snakes

georgia o'keeffe

all life still

cow skull

bull skull

no bull shit

pyrite pyrite

she's no fool

started out pretty

pretty pretty girl

georgia o'keeffe

until she had her fill

painted desert

flower cactus

hawk and head mule

choral water color

red coral reef

been around forever

georgia o'keeffe

great lady painter

what she do now

go and beat the desert

stir dust bowl

go and beat the desert

snake skin skull

go and beat the desert

all still life
