Shawn Keller is a poet living in Brunswick, Maine. As a young man he studied history with the heart of a geographer, and then left New England to explore America. He rode out four hurricanes in Florida, and dipped his toes in the Pacific next to the Santa Monica pier. His poetry is concerned with a sense of place, and the neverending journey we embark upon to find that mythical place we call “home.” His work has appeared in The New Guard and The Northern New England Review, The Portland Press Herald and online at Literati Magazine, The Rising Phoenix Review and The River.iver.
