More About the Author
Product Description
From the Author
I wrote Teragaton during a year long period of experimentation with the language of the unconscious. I was searching for some true text, some hidden, profound and honest text, at the same time I was conscious of rhythm and form when poems were assembled on the page, respectful of poetry. My influences--cubist poetry, William Carlos Williams, Pound, the Beats, Ginsberg, Black Mountain poets like Olson, Wilson Harris, Monk, Bukowski, Baraka, Dorothea Brande, Negritude, and then I discovered surrealism. And it is this that shapes that text. The title was something my late mother whispered to me in a dream, whilst walking backwards up a hill.
