Time and motion are undercurrents in these new poems by Sarah Day. Her subjects encompass the commonplace in the Australian landscape the remnant beak of a raven, tree shadows in urban streets, industrial cranes and mowingmachines, as well as the exotic or peculiar the world seed bank in Norway, artefacts in Pompeii, GraecoEgyptian funeral portraits, the landscape paintings of John Glover, the Earth as seen from elsewhere in the Milky Way. These poems, individually and collectively, invite questions about the enigmatic nature of past, present and future. "These masterly poems follow the traffic of ideas from the known world, travelling along cultural trajectoriesfrom the ancient waters of Mareotis to the glimmering port of Hobart to arrive at a radiant inpouring of dawn a casual, brilliant right of entry. Tempo showcases Sarah Days imagination in exuberant bloom. Her poems are philosophical, lustrous and deserving of wide praise." Bronwyn Lea "Sarah Day is clearly a poet who matters, one with the gift of being able to transform the world we know." Veronica Brady "Sarah Days poems... enable me, the reader, to recapture the lost intensity of my own perceptions. And the words are chosen to detonate differently each time I come to rest on them." Robert Dessaix
