You See What You See.
Granary Books and Lost & Found: The CUNY Poetics Document Initiative, 2026. Item #4381 You See What You See is a collection of Lois Elaine Griffith’s picture-poems, discovered in notebooks from 2007 and 2012–2013 now located with her archive at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at The New York Public Library. These picture-poems reflect the surrealism of Griffith’s art practice, embracing diverse ways of being and seeing to construct images that inspires collaborative curiosity that shapes a kaleidoscopic vision between reader and artist. Griffith is one of the last surviving co-founders of the Nuyorican Poets Cafe. You See What You See exemplifies the communal spirit at the heart of the Cafe’s founders’ work, in that it calls for a gathering.
