About this book
<p>You meant more than life to me. I lived<br> through you not knowing, not knowing I<br> was living.<br> I learned that you called for me. I came to<br> where you were living, up a stair. There<br> was no one there.<br> No one to appreciate me. The legality of it<br> upset a chair. Many times to celebrate<br> we were called together and where<br> we had been there was nothing there,<br> nothing that is anywhere. We passed <br> obliquely,<br> leaving no stare. When the sun was done <br> muttering,<br> in an optimistic way, it was time to leave <br> that there.<br><br> -- from "The New Higher"

About Unknown Author
John Ashbery, has won nearly every major American award for poetry and is recognized as one of America's most important, though still controversial, poets. In an article on Elizabeth Bishop in his Selected Prose, he characterizes himself as having been described as "a harebrained, homegrown surrealist whose poetry defies even the rules and logic of Surrealism."
