“Tyler Doherty surveys the ground and removes himself to the best examples of 20th century poetry — taking them in with zen discipline and the naturalist’s eye for particulars. How precisely he has arrived at what Thoreau found out a century & a half ago! The fun is in the writing.  In writing without preconception or agenda — with all the traces of the fleeting bluesy present moment kept to the surface.  To encounter with words — if need be with word fragments or made up words or words from far-off tongues — the perceptions & thoughts & events that arise — unique, tender, unrepeatable.”

Andrew Schelling
