A Poet’s Voice

About the Book

My name is David Samuel King. I first started writing poetry at the age of fourteen. All my poetry are based on my life—either personal experiences or my views on certain subjects. In my poetry, I found peace and safety from the chaotic environment I was raised in. I am a survivor of drugs, violence, abuse, military, and prison. In writing poetry, I hope to provide a light to people going through some of the same things that I went through. God is great.
