"Christopher Cooley is one of the greatest poets alive," shouts D. Fenster of ONE MAN PRESS. "Those that have not read his work are lacking a sliver of humanity!" And so it begins, another unsung hero for a generation quickly fading into history's saddest chapter yet. Mr. Cooley's debut book of lyrics, poetry, and prose came out in 1998 and was called "A Mouth of Flowers." The book was written in under thirty days and received pretty good acclaim. Now focusing on confessional poetry and his own verbal assault on anything and everything, Christopher Cooley is about to unleash his most aggressive work to date. The book will be put out by Artillery Productions and will contain everything you like in poetry: depression, misery, loss, and a whole bunch of other unhappy endings. The book is brutal and honest. So is Mr. Cooley. If you only read one poet this year, read Christopher Cooley. If you only read one poem in your life...go get a new life and come back to this site. Poetry and prose are not dead arts...they were just waiting for a new pulse. Welcome to the world of Christopher Cooley. According to Mr. Fenster, "...Christopher Cooley is that pulse!"It is worth mentioning that Christopher Cooley is also manager and drummer for Aaron Patrick and the Classics. Aaron's site is below in the 'Top Friends' so please check him out and the entire Christopher Cooley arsenal of talents will be posted soon. He is far too humble to mention his achievements, but we are not so stay tuned for more about Christopher Cooley: poet, writer, musician, and just about everything else./.. ..
