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
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...
