04:18AM �
�
�
What is it I'm hearing �
The Adhan? �
The word itself means "to listen" �
Is it really dawn? �
Unclear voices.. �
The roosters keep cloaking.. �
Cold wind blows.. �
�
�
�
�
Earlier that morning �
02:00AM �
�
�
�
Who's this fortune teller? �
Who sings well when am dreaming at night? �
Dreaming within dreaming �
In my dream �
I'm seeking some advice �
But the trouble, is it actually me dreaming or is it a trance?.. �
I don't really care which is �
Coz it still echoes �
While awaken �
It rings in my ears �
�
�
"Fortis Fortuna adiuvat.. �
Fortune favors the bold" �
I was told
"Fortune favors the brave.. �
And this saying, �
I will take with me to my grave.. �
This I pledge! �
�
�
For the many knots I refused to tie �
Is it really the fear of failure to finally loss hold of my remaining patience? �
I deeply wonder how much can one endure �
Coz I failed to accept the fact that I totally failed who thought and shower me guidance �
Counselling me not with lies �
With them, I got a life �
He, she or they �
Whom from the first time, which I can remember �
Just a kid then, so I don't care what year, the month it might've been a December �
�
Stalking me is this unknown stigma �
I myself untold, but convinced I am an enigma �
Not surprising when these folks keep wondering what this deceiver's doing in paradise.. �
�
Stay put or opt out of it? �
For strength and stability in uncertain times? �
The stupid fucking question they keep on asking, asking, asked as an ass? �
�
Where no rhyme nor reason to life.. �
In afterlife.. �
All I feel's like more than Alice in wonderland.. �
All I feel's like modern Alice in wonderland.. �
I dream of heaven, where I bound �
Here ain't nothing is contraband �
Not there, here it's not like some parade ground.. �
�
I roll and smoke only what I compound (dead)!.. �
For once and for a moment, no sick thoughts embedded in my brain gallery �
Natural or acquired I don't need me, nor more immunity �
As I'm now immune to any foreign antibody �
A good fortune coming my way �
My mind so pure not even a single fantasy � �
Inside �
Nor pack of lies! �
Last to leave until I see everybodys got no intruders in my colony �
�
So do me a favor If I should waver �
These sayings �
Thanks to me they were right in every way �
Don't know if I'm �just an ordinary and rare, orphan of mystery �
I know I must have to hearken to this advice �
I should know by now, whatever is darken in my state of life �
Also darkened my previous living daylights �
�
�
Who's this fortune teller? �
Who sings well when am dreaming at night..?? �
�
�
�
"Fortis Fortuna adiuvat.. �
Fortune favors the bold" �
I was told
"Fortune favors the brave.. �
And this saying, �
I will take with me to my grave.. �
This I pledge!

This is a very interesting concept my Nigeria King.. I had to slowly take in the gist of your points of view and analyze your perceptions, you are very prolific on so many intellectual levels. I really enjoyed reading your sense of direction within this musing...
