"...It was some time since the author had been seen in his home town (Sydney). Standing, he said to me - though we had been drinking, taking various pills - did I know Apollinaire's lines - about tossing off your life as tho it were a drink? 'Some Days', he said, strayed between the poles of Robbe Grillet's In The Labyrinth and 'Tambourine Life'. Endless lyric, bildungsroman, parody, abstract poem? 'Footprints' he said he had thought of as something. He had forgotten, but must once have had an idea of it. It was dawn. We inhaled. He had liked, he said, the paintings of Patrick Caulfield - but I knew he was talking again about the big poem. He was my friend. The Elders and Goldsborough Mort buildings began to catch the early light. We gazed down together over the parapet, at the traffic just beginning, both pleased at its miniature scale." - Julie Lawton

Autorenporträt
Thoughtful-and yet forgetful, easily distracted, hardly there sometimes-Ken Bolton's is a lyrical figure limned against the harsh outlines, the stark colours, of the Adelaide art world, adding a word here, a thought there, in the general flux of words and deeds around town. In 2012 Shearsman published his Selected Poems, 1975-2010. Recent Australian publications include Sly Mongoose, A Whistled Bit of Bop, Lonnie's Lament and Starting at Basheer's.
