Introduction by John Tranter
The Latin poet Horace was reflective rather than passionate. His poem on the theme of remorseless time, that passes and devours everything, is known not by its title - Latin poems generally didn't have titles - but by its first words, Eheu fugaces - 'Alas, fleeting'. These sixteen poems of mine are 'fugitive'; that is, they have appeared in magazines or newspapers at various times over the thirty-odd years since I published my first poem, but they were passed over, along with many others, when I came to gather material for my various books. i keep nothing from her
i share with her all i have
she will leave me others will harbour her
on her long flight to victory
and hide her by night
- H.M.Enzensberger

Jack Israel The Floor of Heaven At the Florida Late Night Radio (1998) and Different Hands Imagine being in someone's urban basement for the screening of a film — is it a home movie or an obscure, obsessive theatrical? Is it a documentary, biography, or comedy/drama? It's probably a blend of the three. (Cinema as subject and metaphor figures throughout; see "Those Gods Made Permanent" in Late Night Radio, and "North Woods" in At The Florida. ) And suppose your fellow viewers comment often and out loud on the action, splicing their own sexual and social perspectives into what's happening on screen. How would you describe the evening? Maybe as a kaleidoscope of information, image, and impression, not quite random though not coherent around a leading theme. And yet themes do emerge in the interplay of comment — city versus country, history versus the lived moment, capitalism versus the humane, the fate and fact of art. The overall effect is one of abundant inclusion rendered in a down-to-earth, no-bullshit tone. See, for instance, "Another Country," from

John Tranter
Three John Ashberys
This is a basic introduction
This piece is 2,500 words or about 8 printed pages long.
THERE ARE THREE John Ashberys. The first is the boy who grew into the man who became a scholar and artificer of words. I call him the Primary or Mundane Ashbery. After a youth spent on a fruit farm in upstate New York he attended college and then Harvard University. He gradually turned into another person, a poet; the poet who wrote all those poems, plugging on year after year, one sheet of paper after another rolling through the Remington, until some sixteen of his works stand there on the shelf to entrance and puzzle us. So the poet is not that boy, but another person. What did Rimbaud say? person This mundane manifestation is currently a tall, wide-shouldered man nearing seventy with a slight limp and a courteous, diffident and kindly manner that conceals - almost successfully - a brilliant mind and a wit that revels in gossip as much as in learning. The Mundane Ashbery has a love of old poetry in English and modern prose in French, and of modern art, ballet and music. He has spent his adult life in Paris and New York City. When he reads from his books, in that vague and charming drawl that asks you not to take this stuff too seriously, he looks at certain moments as the Secondary Ashbery might look, hesitant under the reading lamp, searching for the right word.
John Ashbery, Sydney, 1992

Foucault at the
Forest Lodge Hotel
by John Tranter Your good taste is so packed with reading
you can hear a coin drop at fifty paces, but
is that how infatuation beats up to the pitch
of lust? With a trick flame and a gas tank?
General Paresis and a pack of cronies
are practising the Blitzkrieg Variation
"A frontal attack on the Lotus Eaters
and you’re home and hosed." Our guide
to the good life is a drunken junkie, half
girl, half executioner, breathing gas, who fucks like a disco wizard and exemplifies sheer speed as a final virtue, eating out with a rush: that’s how tonight develops into a drug catalogue blazing in the waiting room where I get a crush on Suzanne Pleshette and in that flash rise like a broken bottle into the light. The mob of men, dazed in the Ladies Lounge, inhale a bright idea: We’re not slack, we’re paralytic! For twenty cents and a wet kiss you can take a gun and kill an alien invader, for a dollar you can overhear a fat man mortified, but this is only the rehearsal: by

JOHN TRANTER
John Kinsella: Could you talk about your early years.
John Tranter: I was born in 1943 in Cooma, a little town in the south-eastern mountains of Australia. My father taught in a one-teacher school in the nearby village of Bredbo. It's high country around there, long rolling grassy hills, and pretty much unpopulated. I remember my mother saying that a hot wind blew all summer long, full of dust; in the winter a bitter cold wind, and sometimes snow. We moved to the coastal town of Moruya when I was about four; the climate there was more Californian.
I fell out of the car on the drive to Moruya, late at night. It's almost my earliest memory. On a bend in the dirt road the passenger-side door came open by accident - the car was an old Chevrolet sedan. I'd been asleep in my mother's arms. I fell onto the road and bounced through the blackberries into a ditch. I can still remember staggering to my feet, covered with blood from the gash in my head, and seeing the tail-light disappearing around a bend. It took them a moment or two to realise what had happened, and stop the car. For those few endless seconds it felt very lonely there in the dark.

LOST THINGS IN THE GARDEN OF TYPE
John Tranter
I WENT TO THE SOUTH OF FRANCE recently, to visit my Aunt Helene. She's getting on now. When she was still a relatively young woman she gave up her typographic practice and moved to a retirement village, the Home for the Disappointed on the little island of San Serife, in the Mediterranean. The people in Bembo, the only town on the island, are mainly employed in the printing and publishing industries, so she feels at home there. Aunt Helene has her own cottage, with a garden out the back: she calls it the Garden of Type. It's a place for abandoned things, she says, and typefaces that have been lost and then found again. When the weather's misty she wanders down there in her slippers and turns over the soil and kicks things around. Nothing seemed to grow there now, and I asked her what the garden was for. 'To remind me to remember to remember,' Aunt Helene explained. 'Soon I'll be the only one left who remembers what metal type looked like, or what blotting paper was for.' 'You sound like Henry Miller,' I said. 'I remember he wrote a book called

Selected Poems and after I published On the Edge Seasons on Earth One Thousand Avant-Garde Plays
Kenneth Koch,
New York City
Orlando Furioso years ago in Italy and who also did a wonderful Bacchae
The Marx Brothers play is hilarious.
What about On the Edge Seasons on Earth , published the following year? The first poem in On the Edge
Vie de Henry Brulard

And Seasons on Earth ottava rima , which is the metre that the two long poems are in. And I managed to write a thirteen-page poem explaining pretty much exactly how I felt about it. And since then?
