Tocayo: New and Selected Poems and Songs

by Joe Francis Doerr

Overview

"By turns erudite and lyrical, esoteric and oracular, profane and ethereal - Joe Doerr's Tocayo contains multitudes. This vast miscellany, a bravura poetic performance by every measure, signals the aborning of a new, necessary literary idiom for this mashed-up American age: the ineluctable punk sublime." - John Phillip Santos
