In LOGICALOGICS Palmer turns gender and queer theory inside out and offers his life and mind as a scientific anomaly, offering snippets of his jolting responses to 21st century consciousness. He comes out as a young queer person within the AIDS pandemic, and documents that historical moment and precisely how it happened inside his own body, while capturing the aftermath of a clinically dysfunctional as well as emotionally and psychologically incestuous family. In styles that range from punctuation experimentation combining techniques of ee cummings and A. R. Ammons to a blurring of dream language into political statement using the lyric tradition, to the modes of narrative poetry, confessional poetry and surrealism, Palmer seeks to narrow the gap that both Frank O'Hara and Gertrude Stein posited about the infancy of writing and the middle age of painting.
