I've got a love-hate relationship with Ashbery. His excesses (no governor on the mind-flow) sometimes put me off. As JA puts it here: I don't look on poetry as closed works. I feel they're going on all the time in my head and I occasionally snip off a length. —John Ashbery, London Times (23 Aug 1984) Jill, I put your quote up on an idiosyncratic poetics quote site I'm building (ever so slowly) here... http://conjecturesatrandom.blogspot.com/ (And if Rachel finds her quote, I'd like to have it to.)
