Cut My Days Like Water

Abigail Carroll's 'Cut My Days Like Water' is a contemporary poetry collection engaging the language and themes of the Psalms, offering fresh meditations on lament, praise, and the natural world.

Carroll repurposes biblical motifs to craft poems that attend to creation, longing, and spiritual curiosity, often using vivid imagery and precise language.

The collection sits within a larger project by the author to write poems inspired by the Psalms, continuing a dialogue between ancient texts and modern sensibilities.

Readers find the work attentive to sound, rhythm, and the habitation of wonder in ordinary places.

The book contributes to contemporary Christian poetry by blending theological reflection with close lyric observation.
