The essayistic
introduction to this collection of abstract poems by John O’Loughlin
attempts to point up a distinction between poetry and antipoetry,
and then to contrast both of these with what Mr O’Loughlin
has termed superpoems – the abstract
poetry of a
transcendental age or civilization which strives to dissolve
grammatical
appearances into a non-descriptive essence.
Whether or not he was successful in this, or even correct in his
overall
theorizing at this time (1983), Abstracts is a collection of
poems
which, whilst mostly readerly (or capable
of being
read), is devoid of conventional significance and therefore has to be
read or,
rather, understood in relation to the underlying significance, where
apparent,
of the form, which lifts each poem above the usual phenomenal realm of
descriptive poetry towards a transcendent realm of pure abstraction. –
