A sophisticated debut\u2026<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Keegan\u2019s debut collection takes cars as its inspiration for quirky fun and terse, stark verse. The poems in the collection are both fun and contemplative and not only pay homage to cars but also revel in sentiments. \u201cA Space So Delicately Confined\u201d features lovers\u2019 quarrels. \u201cBuilding Secret Machines\u201d talks about outlandishly futuristic headlights on newer models. \u201cMotor City Run Run\u201d recounts several brand names and ponders on the futility of a brand name in the absence of the basic functioning parts. \u201cDerelict Debacle\u201d with its theme of a late-night car robbery is as grim as it\u2019s humorous. Keegan blends poignant emotions with non-poetic elements: car models, engine parts, tires, and headlights and brings forth a collection that\u2019s amazingly fun and reflective. An expertly created collection of lighthearted, breezy poems that poetry lovers will devour in no time.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
