Overview
War. Life. These two terms seem to have contrasting meanings. "Where They Meet" is an analysis of their intersection using poetic verse. Through rhyme, meter, and often humor, Cokie takes the reader through his experiences in both worlds. From the unpopular notion of fun in combat to the questions of God's presence in war, to the overwhelming joys of being a husband and father, these poems are meant to illuminate simple truths to both veterans and civilians. ... Cokie has spent well over a decade behind a sniper rifle in service to the U.S. Marine Corps, various private military companies, and the almighty dollar. He has also spent time as a combat medic and a seminary student and now places his identity as a man who serves Christ and loves his wife and children.
