BROKEN

Stayed in bed with my thoughts,
playing hide and seek with my soul,
replaying moments with Mary and Booze,
showing me my past and tribulations winning battles,
I was destined to win from earth's time,
but the fear of lot of blind things leads the eagle's eyes to sprain
his neck on the wrong prey,
wandered around life connecting dots on how far we have come,
to give our dreams to masters who molest reality before our eyes,
kept saying we would never make our test on papers for never believing their coup deter,
lost my identical team mate on our best day,
playing that important match that lead us to the finals of the next stage,
trust me never to say anything but I know everything,
your scent is flower beautiful like the roses,
blessings the morning with its aroma of hope and nature
I had to push my struggles forward to exchange it for smiles and fame someday,
I made it alone with mortals breaking souls in the streets,
got the baddest bitch but she is every brother's stick,
but I mind my business rolling dice on the vertical end of my street,
but every man has his death story to tell while,
surviving  on oxygen in the country's O².

WEED: HAPPY 4: 20 DAY

     In the spirit of 4:20, we would be talking about everything you need to know about weed and how you can smoke without getting hurt or loosing your mind.
     “Hey hood man you got some mary”? or you hear “badman make we go pray now”,you're not far from a stoner or group of selfless calm individuals under the influence of grace and wisdom. 80% of Nigerian parents were preachers of this gospel in a wrong perspective and that has kept some of us in fear of beholding the Holy stick of Juana, but a good number has tried to break and visit the Holy land, many with good stories and some never returned and have stories of regret and swear words of never going back.
       Today, we'd be talking about everything you need to know before visiting the Holy Temple of Mary J.There are different types of weed or marijuana.“Marijuana” refers to the dried stems, leaves or flowers of the plant “Cannabis”. The main active ingredient in weed is the chemical Δ-9-tetrahydrocanabinol ,or simply "THC".  It has physcoactive effects which can altermoods, alertness and cognitive functioning. Canabidol or CBD is also a large component of weed plant and has relaxation effects that does not have the psychoactive effects of THC. CBD can be used to relieve pain. The strongest types of weed tend to have a high ratio of THC to CBD, meaning there is alot of THC and less of CBD.

     Types of Weed and effects

The two major types of weed comes from two different species of the cannabis plant.
1)Cannabis Indica
 2)Cannabis Sativa

 The types of weed vary based on the effects they have on a person or the type of high they give. The third one, Cannabis Rudralis, not common among dealers in Lagos and has also been used to make weed. It has lower level if THC and is mostly used for medicinal marijuana.

1) Indica

    The origin is believed to come from the Hindu “Kush" region close to Afganistan. Anyone who knows anything Marijuana knows that kush there is really strong weed. It tends to be shorter and have the appearance of a bush. The leaves are darker and rounder than Sativa plant. The buds grows in caps and it produces a large amounts of THC and low levels of CBD, it is strong weed and very relaxing or sedating, sometimes you just want to pass out on the floor. It is advised to be smoked at night before going to bed. Some of the epic names given to top flavour include Purple haze, Granddaddy purple etc. 

2) Sativa
Unlike Cannabis Indica, Cannabis Sativa alternative has energizing effects which is why is advised to be smoked in the morning or afternoon. This strain of marijuana is used primarily for depression and exhaustion. The effects of Sativa in the body are said to be uplifting and allows you to bring your creative demons out. Also medicinally,it can treat ADD and mood disorders. Some of the popular flavour under Sativa include sour diesel, Jack heter and Lemon haze. 

3) Hybrid.
Hybrid strains are made by cross germinating the seeds of the two common strains of cannabis in an attempt to produce both. Most strains commonly grown today are hybrids rather than pure Indica or Sativa.

  Mental Effects Of Marijuana
-it can impair memory.
-Ability to think and react is challenged.
-It can lead you to get anxiety and paranoia.
-Mood swings.
-Hallucinations is very possible.

 Countries That Smoke The Most Marijuana.
-Jamaica
-Australia
-Spain
-Canada
-Nigeria
-Italy
-Iceland

Health Benefits.
-Used for glaucoma because marijuana decreases the inner pressure of the eye.
-Marijuana can assist greatly in regards to epilepsy.
-Marijuana is an excellent way to assist those with mood disorders.
-Decreases anxiety, depression, stress and insomnia.

NB: Now you know you need to know but just know this pocket rules
1)Never let anyone force you to dope a strain, smoke when your mind feels free.
2)When you behold the Holy stick, your tolerance level should determine how many puffs you intake. 
3)Come down when you've reached your bustop.
4)As a beginner, don't drag too much you might choke and get uneasy. 
4)Dont do drugs, just smoke weed.

HAPPY 4:20 READERS.

SEX AND DRUGS.

Baby let me stare at you while i grind my plant,
flashbacks from the last scene hits harder at night,
like my strokes on your pussy tonight,
with moans and groans and likkle cum top,
billing my zoot while i carefully undress you with my naked eyes,
sparks my interest and kneels to your temple to pray,

Hail Mary,
fill my grace with her waters of beauty,
tongues locked in a prison filled with white men running for pleasure,
booking our minds on Mary's brown jet to fly,
medicate our lone souls on a journey of pain and pleasure,
I'll take you to a universe filled with unicorns and rainbows,
where your legs keeps shaking like Rambo,
five rounds of everything pretty and nice,
pray to Mary for our souls to rest in Nirvana,
mama please keep my enemies away from soul and destiny,
six rounds and we still burning slowly into the night,
with sweat,blood and sex confessions,
she said she prays this lasts forever but the universe keeps changing condoms like humans.

WITH LOVE FROM YOUR SLAVE.


I get lost in the fantasy of your smiles,
intoxicated by love or something close to it,
wondering like a zombie in your world,
your words were smooth enough to hold keep a criminal,
moonwalkin slowly, your ex calls me Michael,
you healed our wounds with your decietful words,
and clothed me with the cloak of confusion,
just to keep me lame from being a toxic man,
admonished my phone to ring your bells again
nights I begged you to loosen my cuffs but, the time difference had us Lagos to London
you were my best memory but it got formatted by a virus you created in my system,
far away into the fields you ran and exited me,
travelled to the far city called Distance and, left letters on your kitchen shelf with my, slave keys and a poison to kill my mind,
after reading.
    Hello Prisoner,
         I'm sorry for hurting your heartless heart again by acting like your best dream while I manifested into the nightmare that rains sweat on your body. Sorry for acting like I cared while I needed your good deeds to heal my broken pot so I can fetch feelings for my Master to drink all night till we done making love, please don't imagine us more than a painful memory you don't deserve this, I knew what I wanted but I kept your good heart racing cars with no direction or finish tracks. I promise to act like I care when next I ascend in your life but the poison won't kill your spirit but weaken your heart to succumb to my wails again. Take care loser.
Your worst nightmare.

How To Get Over Him/Her Quickly By Olamide Sawyer.


    While heartbreaks are really painful, they can be easily resolved in one of the following 8 steps.

1. Allow your self be sad.
   Its fine, it's okay. When people date and really have a connection they tend to loose them selves and become a whole new person. They fuse with the person they are in love. You start talking like them, using their slangs, even sometimes adjust your whole schedule to them. It's okay to be sad you lost someone who was a large part of your life. But you cant be sad for ever, most people believe you cant put a time limit on the sadness but I feel you should allow a week or 2 anything more can lead to depression.

2. Personally, I get moved by smell material things like his clothing that still smells like him would make remember and be really sad, it's an option If you have material things around that remind you of him/her, throw them away.


3. The DBDC, meaning

D-elete his/her music, art or anything non material that he/she may have given you
B-lock him/her for the time being
Delete the pictures
C-lear the chat
This is to make sure you cant go back and be reminiscing over spilt milk.

4. Accept he/she will move on too. This is really important, no matter how good you think you are, you must always remember that he/she will move on too and find someone else the person may or may not be better than you, but you must be ready to accept that you will see him/her with someone else and it will sting.

5. Reconnect with friends 
    If you can try to stay away from people of the opposite sex and exes within this time of recuperation, feelings must find a way out and if you're not careful you could find your self in a really bad situationship.

6. Find a hobby, get your mind off it.

7. When you are sure you're not going to blatantly fall back into a pit of dispare and self pity, try and hit him/her up ask how they are and how they are doing. No matter what he/she did to you the person is still only human too, and if he/she actually had any form of feelings for you then he/she probably went through some emotional pain of his/her own.

8. Be cool, not "go to their house and end up making out" cool, like "if I see you in public I'd wave and you'd wave and I would not wish i were anywhere else but here" cool.

     Failure to follow anyone of the steps completely affects your recovery, please also remember what works for me wouldnt necessarily work for you. These are a few things that make me seem heartless but it's pure sense because in a generation like ours you genuinely cannot come and kill your self.

HEY CRUSH


You just sit back pick up a paper and start writing,
The lost emotions that kept fighting,
The battle who was won by another,
A king to your penny heart while you sleep on my blurry words,
The worst thing to ever come across is
having to tell yourself the truth,
About the lies crushed by your crush,
I be plugging her to nice songs,
And then she sends them to her nigga,
He's still top of the food chain,
But they kept eating all my preys away,
Dedicated to make you happy was my worst mistake,
But team no regrets for life so i still move slow,
If your heart pure like cocaine then it must cost a fortune to keep,
Close your eyes and make a wish
imagine me in it then you find the real love,
But your eyes locked with keys of excuses,
And all you could feel is far from the point,
Imagine taking all this bullets to be left on your death bed,
Not even to heal your wounds or to see you regardless,
But the rainbow will be resting on the other side,
With love from me and my sanity.

LOVERS NIGHT

  Waiting by the bus station for my mystery woman,
paranoid and tired figure walked up to my bent head,
shouted at my weak face “my love” and my heart recognized that voice and awoke again with hope for better frenches and real hugs,
hurried to the cab waiting at the park, with our hands locked in on each other.
we got home with no much Lagos demons to frustrate us tonight,
an award show was supposed to be attended with my soulmate but i trusted in fear than hope,
I know pain, heartbreak and shame
we played soccer at down town bury till they left me handy with choices of being back again
i brought tears food i made to my heart to eat while i dice my meat on her tray
a beauty queen life brought my way
a rare gem to those who knew her value
her only words were “spoil me papi”
and her slave moaned to her request fast
she ate my food while we steamed our meats scored two goals, showered and left the room,
drove out to the venue at Ikeja on the alte cruise like a jiggy nigga from my city,
the night was still young but her eyes kept saying kiss me through your words again
but trust nothing to go unnoticed, we chatted about us and that was the wrongest move to ever be played on the chess board
but little lies and deceit put us on track again,
our eyes appealed to consent and my kids feel off the rage as she kept preaching to my stick again, ridden and beaten meatie was dead staring at hell's gate with the devil cumming on creamy skates,
on a lover's night with blood and promises.
