I Am With those whom I am housed, I do not love. With those who keep me guard, I have no quarrel. For those who serve me unjust, I do not hate. Though I long for freedom this cell maybe my fate! A traveling man with no destination, my luggage is the world’s weight. Though I sin, am I not human? Made of desire and flesh, as not the rest? I am King when I dream, a mere slave when I awake. Though I travel in place with withered legs,I will march to the light of freedom until my soul leaves this place. Upon the sun or my death, my pen shall never be sheathed. I will fight until my kingdom is released from this siege. Love is upon my heart, upon my mind is peace. Perhaps, I have changed, pity upon the man who remains the same. Unaware of its perils, I played a deadly game. Though my body is caged, my mind is free. I am Kory McClary!
My name is Kory McClary, I am 34 years old. I am currently serving a lengthy sentence at the New Jersey State prison in Trenton, New Jersey.
I am fighting for my freedom so that I may return to my family and loved ones. Yet, I know that it is a long, tough, and bitter battle to achieve that goal.
But, with the grace of God Almighty, and for the sake of my family, I will fight on. I am using this blog as a medium to enhance my voice and to bring awareness to my unfair condition leading out of my unjust conviction.
While spending almost all of my time in a cell, I chose to write so that I may voice the reality of my situation, because without awareness there can never be Justice...!
To escape the harsh reality of prison, I use the pen to release my frustrations. I use the pen to manifest my imagination. And, most of all, I use the pen to Fight.
I am fighting for my Life! Just by reading Kory McClary's Blog, you are giving my plight and my word's a voice. Thank you.
Please, stay tuned...
