World Womb, by Lisa Molina

Gray Lines with Black, Blue and Yellow, by Georgia O’Keeffe (USA) 1923

World  Womb

In the museum,
I turn the corner
from Vincent’s Irises,
And gasping,
Georgia’s World Womb facing me
Shockingly-

God’s hands embracing the universe, while an 
open womb waits.
Creation of the infinite;
and the infinitesimal.

Oh! How I shriek and shake.

Lisa Molina

This poem was first published in Eris & Eros Journal.

When not reading and writing, she can be found singing, playing piano, attending art exhibits, or hiking in nature.
