Hi, I'm M. Cottonwood. I'm a poet and a filmmaker.

I was inspired to create Three Poems by the film of Frank O'Hara reading "Having a Coke With You."

I invite poets I admire over to my studio. Each reads three poems.

Unlike Mr. O'Hara, they are not allowed to take phone calls during filming.

The films are simple. Just the poems. 

If you like the poems, you should buy the poet's book. From a bookstore, if possible.

Thanks for watching!
