摘　　要：With an eye to the workings of collage-in particular its prophetic temporality-I explore the collage practice of the Australian poet Bella Li,with a focus on her second book,Lost Lake(2018).Taking my cue from movements of broken or disjunctive association in Li*s work,I seek to mirror Li’s poetic collages with a reading that is itself both exploratory and associative.Beginning by commenting on the circularity of collage,this article itself becomes a kind of collage.Li's surrealist practice,layering evocative object(word,image,idea)over evocative object,instigates a chain of associations.Via such sequences’ellipses and associative chains,Li writes poetry as transtemporal collage,as a surrealist dream,and as prophecy of what was and is and is yet to come.
