– I remember Jeremy asking me, apropos of nothing that had gone before 'Don't you think "My words echo/Thus in your mind" a very arrogant thing for Eliot to have written?'
– my eyes have seen what my hand did
Conceptual poetry aside, poetry is, at its last, the renewal of language, not a terminus. See the neo or late modernism of The English Intelligencer, or Eliot's future ideal lyric, or Silliman's l=a=n=g=u=a=g=e theory of 'aura'. I have tried to develop a craft that will convince the reader that my autobiographical (and autobiography may well be inescapable however much poets like Prynne have attempted to eradicate human subjectivity) language is a renewal. As such, and as well as discussing the poetics (predominately an antagonism between objectcism and objectivisim) I've tried to incorporate, and how they might, together, make for the essence of such a poetry, I will tell the story of how it is that allusion and quotation can substitute for autobiographical truth. I will conclude that I hope this craft amounts to a "break through the fallacy of constituted subjectivity" (Adorno).
