My name is Jeffrey Allen Bryant. I was in active addiction for over 30 years of my life. From a life growing up in a suburban neighborhood, to living on the streets, and spending almost 15 years in and out of the penitentiary. I was shown that I was able to put my thoughts and emotions to rhyme. I used this as sort of a therapy to help me understand things about myself and the life I had chosen. Which helped me find recovery after a long life of drug addiction. My hopes is that my poetry will be able to help someone not go through what I had to go through to find out change is possible. And then turn allow me to feel that my life has not been in vain.
