Fracas

Poetry. Elizabeth Fodaski's FRACAS grabs attention, then holds, examines, and explodes the attention it attracts. This work is both elegant and playful, sardonic and amused. A din, a brawl, a noisy quarrel. It instructs, implores, and navigates a level of writerly inquiry that's a joy to encounter ... FRACAS rocks -- Jessica Grim. Liz's poems are very raw. They are the impulse to speak -- Eileen Myles. let x=o/ we still have too many constants/ see dangle, see ding./ a true strong verb/ Constant; see State./ Consternation; see Stratum./ Conspire; see Spirit./ Conspicuous; see Species./ This is a bust,/ Etymology uncertain (Etymologies).
