Woman with a Beard
On the Marquise du Châtelet (1706-1749)

Andi Frankenburger




Lover, fair creature
       scholar of natural science
in the shadows of the beautiful
            a mind sublime

held to principles by
some force   “irresistible”
     a body in motion
proportions out of time

Bringing concepts under
        across languages
        beside men of Letters

she dipped her arms in ice water
to stay the nights

a woman’s eyes
set by fire
revising the nature of force
                to update the tides
