008 Kiyooka is asked if he visits the historical Japanese areas within Vancouver
034 The audience is encouraged to Question Kiyooka directly about some selected poems
068 Kiyooka suggests a difference between the arrangement of words on a page, and the “space” between words: “The desire to make the poem articulate on the blank white page is a very strong one, it’s not just reading the words and what they’re meaning, but also the spaces and what they’re meaning…”
124 Kiyooka comments about historical perspectives: For Kiyooka this is an important and somewhat mystical concept
160 Kiyooka denies any strong dependency or concern with dreams or dream imagery – he points instead to a relativity of states of consciousness
226 An audience member interprets one of Kiyooka’s poems: “The reality was the dream, and the waking world was only there to feed the dream”
280 Kiyooka proposes a definition of articulateness: “You should be responsible in talking about anything – and that means candid… nothing is withheld”
310 Kiyooka reads “The Fourth Frem”
325 End
326 Kiyooka reads an unidentified poem
