An Actual Encounter With the Sun On / My Balcony At France Street: a
parody on Frank O'Hara's 'A True Account Of Talking / To The Sun At
Fire Island' who in turn based his account on Mayakovsky's more robust
poem, 'A Most Extraordinary Adventure'. POETS' PALACE: a name given by
the author to an old Kauri, weatherboard guest house in France Street
(the upper story of which he occupied in the early '80s) near the
prostitute's strip off K'rd, Auckland. Various 'emerging' poets &
artists lived downstairs at intervals during this period. As the last
of its kind in Newton Gully this 100 year old wooden building was
finally demolished at the close of the decade.
