Upper Level Disturbances

"Kevin Goodan's poems embody a quiet, incandescent fierceness, fuelled by loss, but still able to seek and find a place to dwell, despite the upper level disturbances he encounters in the disappearance of rivers, the uncertainty of-and fissures in-language, the elusiveness of a god, and the diminishment of rural America. These poems are raw and hyper-honest in their regard of a world in which 'every moment is a landscape / We enter, depart, at the same time." -- Christopher Arigo, author of "Lit Interim" and "In the Archives"
