Heaven in utero



Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you Before you were born I santified you Jeremiah 1:5











In the blackest void of the womb

In the fall of 1972

He picked a wonderful vessel for me

To be thrust into

God said it's time

He called me by my name

To enter this world

Beyond this spiritual plane

Let his seeds of life

Penetrate her egg

Millions of them lagged behind

There is one that stayed

Enter and be one God will say

My life will begin at conception that day

So here I am in her bosom I live

To grow and be nourished

Even in here so much love she gives

When you talk to me I hear every word

Your sweet voice comforts me

I smile when it's heard

It's so warm inside

In her cozy belly

For nine months I hide

Can't be no place better than this

This is my refuge

My in utero bliss

Now I feel that home is getting to small

I lay upside down, I feel like I'm going to fall

Slowly I descend through this tunnel

I see light

I enter a doorway

I gasp, I come forth, and I have sight





Walter m. Matthews IV 6-21-1973



One day will be known as ColdAugust the Poet of Pain...
