Michael Keenan's poems illuminate that 'other world, inside this one.' Wearing line breaks to score your heart beat by, these poems limn the phantasmagoric backstreets till dawn, never settling for the comfort of the nihilist's pose.
"Etched, fragrant, dark" his sound is original and played with a cutthroat dreamer's intensity. Listen for the shiver, look out for the shiv.
--John Duvernoy, author of Something in the way// Obstruction Blues
Author Biography
While alternately wandering through Rhode Island cemeteries and obsessively watching Twin Peaks, Michael Keenan wrote the chapbook, TWO GIRLS, which was released by Say No Press in 2009. Shortly thereafter he received his MFA in Literary Arts from Brown University and moved to New Orleans, Louisiana where he drove a waffle truck around the French Quarter and wrote poems on receipts from Café Du Monde, some of which have appeared in Poetry International, the PEN Poetry Series, Fence, A-Minor Magazine, RealPoetik, Paul Revere's Horse, Caketrain, Right Hand Pointing, Ad-Hominem Art-Review and Blue Fifth Review, among others. Currently Michael spends his days at Columbia University.
