The marchers make their way today
through town to Cardiff Bay
with whistles, shouts and banners up
for sweet old Mary Jane
they're marching for her freedom
all ages, colours, creeds
have come in joyful spirits
to help us free the **** 

The rich, the poor, the movers and shakers
the blowback kings and part-time partakers
the rollers, the tokers, the bongers and such
the teenage goth stoners who've had way too much
skin up as they march while making their point
and meet up with new friends while sharing a joint.

Then down at the bay side
when the bands start to play
they'll **** in the sunshine
till the end of the day.
Cardiffs annual Marijuana March is today but I'm under the weather and had to miss it :-(

She's the type of girl you get ****** to
Late night conversations
Broken down wrapped tight
The type of girl you laugh & trip with,
Without intention of escape,
A means of quick get away.
The type of girl that's good for your mental.
Filled with hopes & dreams
Down for whatever, at anytime.
Not the average high you'll find.
Shes not a shot type of girl.
Out in the height of the night,
The one you turn to
to run away from your problems.
A bitter taste chased one after another.
She was the girl not everyone is familiar with
But has heard of.
Her type of high one of intellect
not easily found on the block.
Friend of a friend hipped on game


She was the type of girl that put you on the real.
The type you tilt your head to the left and puff.
The type of high you only dream about.
Real tokers know her brand of intrigue
The kind of high you keep to yourself
Yeah my soul is hip hop I keep rapping til the creek stops
That means my heart drops from the all the water making spots
Yo it dont stop until my name reach top invest in private stocks
Whatcha got give up ya clothes ya shoes and ya jewels crews
Cant match up still got the purple stuff up in my cup gold cuffs
Worn on the suit brains I boot check the Lexus coupe my girl scoups
Me up in black and European do you see what we be seeing
Probably not that's why I showing em how the guns bleeding
Out smoke dont provoke the higher notes make famous quote
Dead man walking but ain't no talking king like Mr Walken
Not of New York I just rap the real for the sports seen forts
Knocked down welcome to htown where we pounding clowns
Imprint the crowns on ya forehead before ye dead now repeat
What I said daily bread got ya murders all over the newspread
Yeah we dont do beefs we do drive bys instead miss the feds
It's a mafia hit oh **** hide the kids ya wife and the money pit
I'm feeling like dmx amped up for *** cake a ***** from a rolex
No plex I'm cool as the next fan chilling counting rubberbands
Knots of money ain't nothing funny only to a sucka who play dummy
Drug runners and stunners flossin" in the up armored hummers
Axe out my critics like thunder it's a killer instinct so dont blink
See ya body stink soul begins to think am I still here or dead
**** what ya conscious said I'm here to replay the bloodshed
God of war flash more hammers than Thor shy from the mediocre
Invoker serious as the joker flick the bic for the cigar smokers
Hate a chick who cant **** **** nothing but ****** chokers tokers
Off the lost game pimps back once again 8th of the seven sins
That means I'm untouchable crushable only from the mental
I'll embrace u like bullets inside of a gun quick to let off
Set it off now you covered in dirt with ya head off I'm dead off
Playing this ***** game ya know the name big Tut staying the same
Never goofy spit off the coofy none could ***** me Goldie
With the locs of a glock tic toc see how I make the heats rock
Now ya mourning 33 ways in a dayz like Patrick I swayz
Just another day like Nate Dogg true hog yall sitting like logs
Still jog laps around the average  alley cat breaks ***** with no bats
See where my hearts at its ruthless making your blood splat
**** all the chit chat yeah we all that kung fu grills like Mr Pat

A child was born.
And another...
And another...
And 7.5 billion more...

Some of them grew up
Some of them are going to school
Some are working
Some are bums or thugs on the side of the street

Beggars, roddlers, teens, schoolchildren, office workers, tokers, addicts, gamblers, prostitutes...

All these people...
Who in the world wants to know what's wrong with me?


No one.
Jeremiah Vaughan Aug 2017
Atheist, Atheist, Atheist now what does that mean?

you see that's someone who doesn't believe in god

you can say I'm caught up in the middle

See, is there a god, or is there not

I've never see this so call god

You say he's here, so where is he

he doesn't show his face to me?

you can say this is a poem

but I say this is a story

so, let's cut to the chase, shall we?

See I believe there is someone but then again, I don't

There is people all around us slitting their throat's

I have died 3 times let's not mention the rest

All those years sitting in those hospital beds

Treatment after treatment everyday

See god wouldn't treat me that way

I've seen to many people died from shootings

Why would he want that, now will he?

Sometimes I think if he's playing tricks on us

Like one day they will all wake up

Bottle after bottle drowning in my sorrows

Thinking to myself is there going to be a tomorrow?

You say this so-called god broke out of a tomb

With rocks and rocks piled up high trapped in like a womb

See that's hard to believe when your someone like me

you think and think and think how the world became one, this stuff here couldn't just evolve like the sun

People say this tattoo on my arm is the devil

What if it was, is that against the bible?

Does it really matter

If it was against the Bible?

Now my work here is done

Im gonna go get more work done

If I go to hell thats okay

Because I'll be there with all the gays

Let's not forget the *** smokers

Just because they are tokers

I'm done here

So let me grab a beer

Oh wait and kick you in the rear

— The End —
