poetry by j matthew waters

genius of the children


I shall lay bare all my sins
by way of the written word
etched onto paper
recorded in the cloud
available twenty-four seven
long after we’re all gone

while in the present
privacy is of no consequence
brainwaves like tree roots
interconnected & quite alive
conversing in a language
all their own

    I can come back to your writings, my children and children’s children can also visit this language, its in the cloud ❤

    Mr. Waters you literally write every-single-day, how you do it I will never know! You are a true writer indeed!
