Manic State: A Collection of Poetry

By Christopher L. Jones

"Manic State: A Collection of Poetry" is one of the original poetry chap books written by the author, Christopher L. Jones, during his teenage years in the early 1980s growing up in the American Southwest. Originally published by a small underground zine publisher, it was distributed for free at concerts, parties and community events along with a group of other young punk new wave writers.What started out as an art therapy session in his youth has become a lifelong poetry obsession and means of maintaining sanity for the author. Having published his poetry on numerous online poetry reviews, magazines and websites the author has finally gathered all of his chapbooks into one package reformatted specifically for your ereader. With poetry that ranges from the grotesque and sexually erotic to the sublime and mundane there is sure to be a poem here that every reader will be able to relate to or get turned on by.
