My name is John Marcel O'Gradney. I was born on March 3, 1976 in Chicago, Illinois. I started writing poetry in high school, which led to me becoming a lead singer in a rock n roll band. I’ve been in various bands throughout the years, having always been the main lyricist. For me, I’ve always felt that song lyrics were simply poems put to music. I’ve been a student of life since birth, my school being the earth, imagination my teacher, and life being the lessons learned. The poetry i write is about everything from life, love, religion, philosophy, and drugs. I am now living in St. Petersburg, Florida, where I was raised from the age of eight. I work to pay my bills as a chef, which I have been doing since I was twelve years old. My grand father owned a restaurant and gave me a job as a dishwasher. I worked my way to a cook and have been doing it since.
