Sheez Water Biography

Sheez Water grew up as an eighties baby in downtown Washington D.C. One of ten children, Sheez was quiet and creative. Finding her voice through home study, Sheez developed her talents. She refined them through open poetry mikes, classroom studies, and a hell of a lot more life experience than necessary. At the age of fourteen she asked an Ethiopian sister if her unusual name meant anything in her language, she was brushed off with, “It doesn’t mean anything; it just translates into ‘she’s water’” Finding the translation beautiful, she kept the name as her pen. After going to college (with plans on going back) Ms. Waters now resides in a historic home on the outskirts of Baltimore with her child.)

The Best Poem Of Sheez Water

1....2....

Breath abated/still I waited/ drizzle pounding /now surrounding /me is sea/ infinity /of the plea/ you got from me

Carbon copy /disk is floppy/ things with wings/ they fly he caught me/ in a grip a tight as gold/ on a finger turning cold

Prayed a little bit each day /for all the things I could not say/ hoped that you would come for me/ and drink the seas infinity

Hoped that you’d abate my sorrow/ keep me looking for tomorrow/ now our time is at a bar/ stumbling crooked to his car

Things that I will never say/ will pile and pile like mounds of hay/ sitting there to catch your fall/ I won’t answer when you call

Enigmatic power play/ I think it’s time to turn away/ from all the naivety/ you really hoped to see in me/

Breath abating still I’m waiting…
