Graphology Paraph 27: in memory of John Tranter
Sydney... not the bush!
Away from the country town
towards the city, away from the Jindyworobaks
towards the New York School of Poetry.
Sheen in a skyscraper’s window
till we look closely and see the reflection
of another window, then another —
a cascading advertisement for real estate
we might occupy in the lexicons
of a pop-cult industry always
threatening to consume,
a drip-fed Babel ingraining
images extracted from movie tones,
images stencilled into news
of icebreakers or satellites
within satellites within satellites.
John Kinsella
