Originally from Miami, FL, Michael J. Pagan served four years in the U.S. Navy before returning to Florida Atlantic University to earn a BA in English. He is currently an MFA student-in-progress at FAU. His poetic works have been published in Coastlines, as well as Screw Iowa and Bridle Path Press.
“As a writer, I’m interested in trying to get to the complexity of experience. For me, that has led—in poetry—to counterpoint, polyrhythms, and clausal layering.”
