the land is well kept, but none are buried beneath
boredom and a back road brought us there
sage dust and ailing wrought iron led the way..."
With a chapbook affection nesting at its core, Papercut: A Chap-style Book of Prose breaks from the conventional thematic-form poems to favor layered narratives that recount the poet's assorted thoughts and observations on the past and world at large.
Behind each turn of phrase, under every analogy, an air of revelation waits to be discovered. Like the papercutting arts of old, these poems may appear cursory at first glance but reveal worlds of dimension with each read.
With recurring themes in love, loss, the intimate pursuit of a spiritual self, and understanding how time and experience help guide our humanity, readers of Ty's works have come to enjoy an often deeply reflective tone at the heart of his poetry, encouraging them to ponder the bigness of the world around them through the wonderment of words.”
