When Carrie & Lowell was first released in 2015, I was still in grad school at NYU, trying to finish what would become my first book of poems, Night Sky with Exit Wounds. I remember listening to the album while walking around Greenwich Village, down 11th street towards 5th avenue, then back towards 6th via 10th street. I’d circle those blocks while the album emptied from my phone and into my body, trying to solve particular ticks and problems in my writing.
