Ways to Make a Halo

-Ben Banyard, Poet & Editor of Clear Poetry With great care to conscience Kevin Casey conveys his inner world, where he may grow a metaphysical orange tree inside himself and then lament the butchering of a lamb, 'its soft, stretched body as white as the rope that fastened it,' at Easter. Casey creates poetry laced with descriptive detail that pays attention to the sensual in Ways to Make a Halo. -Órla Fay, Poet & Editor of Boyne Berries Magazine In Ways to Make a Halo, Kevin Casey seamlessly brings elements of the divine and the natural world together with very human moments, elevating the everyday to great effect. Casey's innovative use of language is subtle but powerful; these lines sneak into your heart, like an accidental glimpse at forgotten photographs. The tiny stories within each of the poems will share something new with every read through. -Kate Garrett, Poet & Editor of Picaroon Poetry
