So much time Why wait? I grabbed the Pen Let my tales spin True Story… Real Rap… So deep It’s not often But sometimes tears creep down my cheek Sometimes… I feel stuck Down on my luck. Most times… I be writing, Creating freedom with my Pen My Pen stroke is deep Courts don’t feel me… Fuck ‘Em I’m solid So the streets feel me I wonder if Allah hears me This cell is vicious So I started writing fiction To escape the reality Late night the walls talk Moan and scream Fiction or a dream? Drive me mad or perfect my craft I decided To scribble hearts for love’s art Love is what’s on my heart Peace on my mind When my professor call, the opportunity is a check Everything my Pen touches is for freedom… You Heard
“Welcome to korymcclary.com, the online space where writing takes flight and freedom finds its voice. I am Kory McClary, a passionate writer who has found solace, purpose, and resilience through the power of words. Despite facing a wrongful conviction and serving a 130-year sentence, I have chosen to wield my pen as a weapon for justice, aiming to expose the flaws and injustices within the criminal justice system.
My writing journey has taken me to esteemed platforms such as the Guardian US Prison Journalism Project, Mindset News, and the News Station, with more exciting publications on the horizon. Through heartfelt essays and thought-provoking journalism, I strive to shed light on the untold stories and struggles that often go unnoticed.
In addition to my impactful non-fiction work, I am also the author of the captivating book, ‘For Fiction: It’s Amazing.’ Within the realm of fiction, I find refuge from the confines of a prison cell, diving deep into the minds of the characters I create. These imaginative narratives allow me to transcend the boundaries of reality and explore the boundless possibilities of storytelling.
This site serves as a testament to my dedication and creativity, presenting an amalgamation of my work that will captivate, inspire, and challenge your perspectives. Join me on this literary journey, as we navigate the depths of human experiences and uncover the true power of words.
