Precisely the Point Being Made offers rare evidence of a poet whose forms and everywhere vital and exploratory, one conscious of each breath. Yet for Norman Fischer, poetry is not the site of grandiose claims. It is an instrument of attention along the path one travels out in the morning, back as the light fades (in the midst of being all around). Presence before the body and before thought in all their illusoriness. A reader might then notice that the rest is silence. - Michael Palmer
