What do I think of euthanasia? That's an interesting question. I think young people are cool no matter what continent they're on.

We Need Euthanasıa Soon
Euthanasia advocates want dying made easy and legal,
Though religious advocates look on all this as sinful and evil,
We should not have to go to Switzerland to arrange to die,
When we have abortion clinics here and there and no one asks why.
Death on demand is frowned on except for unborn babies,
No one seems to question these abortion bound young pregnant ladies,
But euthanasia and death with dignity is just not allowed,
By Supreme Court judges dressed like a Santa-Clause crowd.
Doesn’t matter if you have a terrible terminal illness,
Soon to be cold dead in a coffin in complete stillness,
Sue Rodriguez had Lou Gehrig’s disease when she was told,
Though she too soon joined the painful dead long before she was old.

Euthanasia For You And Me
Heaven or hell, it doesn’t matter and they’re all the same to me,
It’s how I get through death’s door because I don’t have a key,
And before you get to either heaven or hell, you have to die,
And that could be painful and long and dreadful and I don’t know why.
If we could get euthanasia, we wouldn’t have to die in pain,
But we’re not allowed to get it and there’s no where we can complain,
Our self-righteous religious types think that this is just great,
We might die in great agony and pain and no need for debate.
The Dutch, the Swiss and Americans from Oregon have this,
Though the rest of us can think about it but then dismiss,
We need some powerful politician to make the suggestion,
That euthanasia is not sinful where everyone can question.

In this business, my business, I get to meet all kinds of incredible people, fascinating people, glamorous people and sexy people and highly intellectual people. And you meet them and you go 'interesting, interesting, interesting'. They're interesting, but not very many people stop you in your tracks.

Fine Time
Youre much too young
To be a part of me
Too young
To get a hold on me
Youre much too young
Youre much too young
Youre much too young
To mess around with me
Hey
You know Ive met a lot of cool chicks
But Ive never met a girl with all her own teeth
Thats why I love you babe
Thats why we could be
But youre too young
Too young
The past doesnt matter (12x)
Hey
Sophisticated lady
You know Ive met a lot of cool chicks
But youve got style
Youve got class
But most of all
Youve got love technique.

Your Eventual Death
This is a subject we like to avoid because it’s about death,
Eventually, sooner or later, you will run out of your breath,
So you better pay attention because you too will die,
It helps that most of us don’t know, not yet, the reason why.
And euthanasia and death with dignity are all banned,
All very illegal and very difficult to understand,
But god forbid you are in pain as you wait in torment to die,
The Swiss and Dutch have euthanasia but for you it’s good bye.
So why can’t they change things about so we can have an easy way out?
Where we can get legal euthanasia and know what it’s about,
The right to assisted suicide was not mentioned in the Charter,
So you may have to wait in pain and truly be a martyr.

Dear Africa
Dear Africa a land sweeter than honey
A land that is renowned for its richness
But things have changed, the color of the land has turn bloody
Both young and old, men and women yearn for calmness.
The greeness of the land, the beauty of its culture oh Africa what a beautiful milieu.
Your kindness and hospitality has being used against you
Your inhabitants, your people have being used and enslaved
Working in the plantations, train railways, and mines and they are still slaved.
Africa you could have being the most powerful continent in the world.
But its like this was not meant to be
Your people can't still find rest, because of greener pasture and slavery They whirled around the world.
forgetting what they left behind, the beauty of the forest, people say its herby.
The wars, the fighting, they give us guns and ask us to kill one another
We slice, slaughter, cut eachother as if we are butchers.
Africa your people have suffered badly
some say its because of the idol worship but Africa has changed lately.
There is still a question that is yet to be answered
why is Africa still not united?
They say our leaders are corrupt
If its so then they have to stop because the continent is now bankrupt.
Racism, injustice, brutality oh africa what haven't you seen
the people, the society have suffered and are still suffering oh God what a life of insanity.
They have robbed us of what is rightfully ours
why is society so unfair to us.
We don't know about the next world
but if God is as fair as people say then our suffering wont be in vain in The next world
If things still persist then lets pray for the end of the world each day.
WE LOVE YOU AFRICA

Not all moral issues have the same moral weight as abortion and euthanasia. There may be legitimate diversity of opinion even among Catholics about waging war and applying the death penalty, but not... with regard to abortion and euthanasia.

Age
People
Older to me think
I am still young
People
Younger to me think
I am become old
People
Of my age think
We are not very young
Not very old
Age does not matter
Age is in mind
Age is in thoughts
Which age does?
People talk about
Physically one may age
Mentally
One may remain young
Forget thinking of age
Be a child
Play and laugh
As much as you can
Age physically
Mentally remain young

Euthanasa Maybe ... Nov 25th,2012
EUTHANASIA MAYBE … NOV 25TH,2012
BY
JAMES BREDIN
It's difficult for Canadians to make euthanasia legal,
In fact, it's likely that this issue could be considered evil,
Because organized religious groups are all opposed,
Therefore their anti-euthanasia ideas are imposed.
Without binding referendums or compulsory votes; it's sad,
Without proportional representation; it's as though we've been had,
But no one will discuss this problem, as though it's a sin
Canadians have gone to Switzerland in order to win.
Political, bureaucrat and legal aristocrats can't be touched,
Nor can they recognize that they may have truly botched,
Because Canadians need death with dignity and soon,
It happened to Sue Rodriguez with a disease so no one's immune.

Ill keep a cool head

Ive lost my innocence

Im not here for you amusement
But I think one thing is clear
I see you with that bitch
When you know you shoulda been here with me
Ill keep a cool head

Ive lost my innocence
Ill keep a cool head
Youve got a reputation
For being a ladies man

For thoroughly kicking your ass my friend

Ill keep a cool head

Ive lost my innocence
Ill keep a cool head
No matter what you say to make me stay

No matter what my gut tells me to say
Im playing the game

No matter what you say to make me stay

Ive lost my innocence
Ill keep a cool head
Ill keep a cool head
Im gonna make you beg
And all the promises

Paul Riser tells it in an interesting way; he dissects it and tells the structure, you know, 'you don't mention that part here.' But that's what's interesting about it and the people who are absent are interesting too.
Prolific
he will not be a river
that runs dry
come drought
he will be the sea
as always
deep and blue
and mysterious
and he will speak
everything
interesting or not
from continent to
continent
from shore to shore
till everything
becomes the sea
till all the islands
are erased
till all the glaciers melt
till the world
becomes eaten by
the mouth of the
big water
he will never have
the writer's block
for in all truth
he will be everything
but sense and
nonsense
with the domination
of the latter of course
and you
who is curious shall read
till the last word
because you too
expects much
and then you make a sigh
you relate
and say i am also what i am
sense and nonsense
wise and otherwise.

Rose Petals upon Her Pillow
Let’s become young again,
My lovely summer friend,
Let’s dance upon the beach
Smiling at seagulls and seashells
And laugh like children easily amused
And always happy.
Later in the night,
Let’s walk through a college town
Dressing down but cool and chic
Like Japanese designers.
A streetlight waltz
Holding hands,
Starlight swaying
In your eyes like ballerinas,
One day you will understand
The immensity of this romantic love.
Until you live to share your heart
With rose petals upon her pillow
And dreaming of an inseparable eternity,
Then you haven’t made that special connection
Where two souls become one…
But I know no matter the distance between our footsteps,
Whether an embrace or continent apart, we remain together.

On Naija mission
I encountered a question from Naija girl
”what I am doing in Niaja ‘
taken a back for while but replied
'any thing wrong dear to be on Naijapal'
'What are you doing her, tell me”
”frankly speak, what is your true age'
I said does the age matter,
' I am on humble mission',
Fumingly, I suppose, she became my pal.
'How come on Naija being Non-Naija man'
question was parried by another young boy,
what have I to offer to Naija people?
Not satisfied with answer but requested to add as friend,
He wanted inclusion only because he had no pal,
'He wanted female to be his pal'
Naija is being made as work place,
mission to work for community cause,
to feel the pulse of people and culture,
being one of them and ideas nurture,
with mixed feelings I try to mature,
I want to be your pal,
wrote another pal from abroad,
'fantastic job' why not make me as pal,
such a feeling for stranger,
so much wonder and still no anger,
It seems black is your favourite colour
May be you love passion for black girl,
I was taken a back by direct question,
he had sister to be married yet,
worried at heart, he wanted an answer from me,
Add me as pal and my sister too,
I am only bread winner,
It concerns me more as hopes fade,
Still no hope when his may wed
Situation is same, only stage is different,
'What is Naija 'or for that matter,
What is India or world,
role remains same,
Will Naija be able do it? Million rupee question?
All females and not many males,
may be mother’s dominant role,
and changing map of Naija,
That is why I am on Naija
Naija is used for Nigeria

To be married in our profession is not an easy thing. There's too many beautiful people around, very interesting people. It's just a matter of really having-being patient and probably having the capacity and the faith of falling in love with your own wife again. That happens to me.

Abuse Around Me
When we are young,
we play with our friends
no matter what colour,
creed or religion they are.
Why is then when some grow up
does that status change
and people start to diagnosis
who their friends are?
Why?
It’s a question I often ponder on
when I see the abuse around me.
