IMPROVISATION #222
EVA HESSE
(1936-1970)

In your documentary
  telling how you
barely escaped Nazi
  Germany
 at a childhood train
you discussed
as if you were in the personal
  history
on a fingered index
of your latex models
into artistic abstraction
  on  installations
of conception
   from sexual themes
in a contraction
    in new ambition directions
to a life giving inception
and contradiction
  in your new spaces
forgetting  the reactionary
paradigms
   of landscapes into a hegemony
to shape us, Eva Hesse
 as we race away
from the past.
