Rocky Wilson is a poet, performance artist and substitute teacher who lives along the Delaware River in Camden, NJ with his little puppet friend bongo.
“Rocky Wilson is not just the muse of Camden, New Jersey, the poorest city in these rich, un-united states, he is its soul. Camden is where he finds redemption for a lifetime of loss, “What saves our lives” HE WRITES, “a 6th grade girl, a little cloth monkey, a dull knife, an angel’s wings brushing through the ghetto night.” There’s no doubt in my mind, that if Walt Whitman were alive, he would be rocky Wilson’s biggest fan.” — Peter E. Murphy, Stockton College
