    • Abstract:
      An essay is presented on the alternative model of contemporary Australian poetics that focuses on correspondences in unconnected bees. It explores the contemporaneity of Australian poets Samuel Wagan Watson, Duncan Hose, and Michael Farrell. It says that the poets use a playful linguistic embodiment of the self's temporality. The poems "Infidel Poetics" by Daniel Tiffany and "Traditioning the Invention" by Jill Jones are also highlighted.
