  In Your Name Here , a title suggested by bullfight posters hawked to tourists who then fill in their name as terero , John Ashbery continues to examine preoccupations of age, loss, childhood memories and how the magic of dreams can transform daily living. In the opening poem he asks Why do I tell you these things? You are not even here . Yet via poems of conflicting styles and tone, Ashbery tells us very much more about his imaginings and invites the reader to personalize hsi words with their own associations.
