Abramowitz-Grossberg

"Michelle Taransky's Abramowitz-Grossberg runs on the parallel tracks of names, naming, names, name-changing; it says "I want you to be confused/ Even if you know writing/ Closes the empathy gap// Decides who should be/ Teaching who/ To be a plumber/ Who has no concept/ Of how to define// a vocation...." It asks us to ask questions without end, it questions why we see who we see and who sees us seeing them and how we seem to want to see while being seen by one another, and to know of and be known by a name."—Factory Hollow Press
