Saturday commute clxii: 7 when right-handed






     We don't have to crop a Vivian Maier
     photograph, to pare it to essentials.
     We just have to look at it. How fam-
     iliar she finds the subject's own an-
     nouncement, I am 7 when right-handed,
     8 when I'm left. For all the many in-
     formative features of a Vivian Maier
     photograph, there's no cluttering its
     unforgettability. We take in every-
     thing we see, as utter verification.
