Join the Los Angles Renaissance Show for our first poetry reading by Jarvon M. Greer.
 
I was born into a family that was once peaceful, until they became infected by their own past. I am Jarvon Michael Greer born on April 19,1991 in the city of Inglewood California. As a kid growing up I seen alot of hate, and lived in a gang bang neighborhood where people in the community didn't know what love is. Going to school I was faced with trials of tribulation, getting sexually harrassed by guys &girls. Most of my days I got beat up cause of the way I looked. Got sick of all the attention and people coming after me for sex, testing me with these sex mind games seeing if I was bisexual or straight. At the age of seven I think I was raped but couldn't remember. The only way for me to escape these issues from school &daycamp was through painting. My gift for words came to me in the second grade spelling became easy for me, that I didnt need a dictionary. Before I did poetry I was rappin and had stopped in the seventh grade. Still dealing with these issues made me quiet &bitter that I didnt forgive those who brought pain to me. In the 11th grade. That I will still become a musical artist, thats when I began writing poetry in the 11th grade. I made a major decision that changed my life, which was falling in love with music and acting. My family rejected and didnt see me as a man because I didnt want to run track anymore. My sophmore year of college is when I began doing open mic venues. Some people see me as weird others see unknown cause I have a powerful name that has a story behind it. Here is da meaning to thy name, Justice, Attractive, Respect, Victory, Obediance, Narrate, Motive, Impression, Confidant, Habitual, Adventure, Estale, Level, Gallant, Reveal, Emotions, Ensemble, Responsibilities.
