Opis

"A View from the Street" is a book of poetry written by a man who has lived on the streets off and on for much of his adult life.
He has lived in Portland, in Los Angeles under a bridge with "The Trolls" (a group of homeless street kids), in what is called, "The Hole" in Seattle and until September of 2011 he lived in Tent City 3, also in Seattle, for three years.
Matt expresses his thoughts and struggles with being homeless, stigmas and feeling forgotten, as well as his lifelong battles with 11 types of cancers.
Included in this book of heartfelt and thought provoking poetry, readers will find additional articles about Matt and letters to Matt from former President, Bill Clinton, the United States Senate and the Congress of the United States.
