Carrigan's poems sing with surprises. We follow his sweet and agile eye and mind as he explores, in language that is always fresh, the mysteries of love, the parks of Saline, the stars and their inhabitants, his loverdog Amy, and most of all, the joy of language itself. The poems are in motion, slipping in and out of waking dreams, each graced with the poet's self-effacing humor. - David Stringer, author of ebook What's My Zip Code? and other books.
