Dreadlocked (Rasta style) people are located across the world. They come in all different colors and their dreadlocks in all different styles. Dreadlocks can be intentionally grown because of the quality of hair textures; however, various methods are used to encourage the formation of dreadlocks such as braiding, twisting or a process involving the weaving of the hair. Dreadlocks are commonly associated mostly with the Rastaman's philosophy or religion in the West Indies; however, people from many groups in history before the identification of the Rastaman and Bob Marley, have worn dreadlocks for years, such as the Hindu Shiva Worshippers of India, Europeans, Egyptians, and the Sufi of Pakistan to name a few. The Rastafarians wear dreadlocks as an expression of inner spirituality and to emphasize their religious identity. The cutting of the dreadlocks is highly prohibited in the Rastafarian's religion and culture. As a result, their hair naturally grows into dreadlocks because it's not to be tampered with. There are times when others without a head of dreadlocks in the community or Rastafarian's culture are referred to as a "bald head," which implies not being equally knowledgeable. The following is a poem based on the dreadlocks Rastafarians, and is written in true rhyme end line couplets, in a four-line stanza format:
Natty Dreadlocks-Rastaman Vibration
Dreadlocks with long natty dread curly hair hanging down
There are some precious moments when it's even wrapped around;
Some in East India has it hanging down to the ground
Yogi Masters, meditating, stretching, and wearing a mound!
Jamaican Rastaman with dreadlocks is cool and comely
Praising their God, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah, actively;
Licking their Callie from a cup while taking a spiritual sup
They are raising Jah almighty up, spirits up, and redeeming it up.
Dreadlocks in the islands, growing and reaping Ital food
People not having any time to include being like a crude dude;
Ital brethren on high, looking to the sky, Coptic Bible opening eyes
Ethiopian Zion Coptic Church revealing things not in disguise.
Rastaman vibration, Bob Marley music moving and elevating
Idren and Sisdren moving to the beat while singing and skanking;
Curry goat and Red Stripe Beer on their lips while licking a spliff
Some singing like Jimmy Cliff; others looking out for the sheriff!
Dreadlocks with precious hair twisted around their backs and necks
Movement of Jah people, passing steeples, avoiding Babylon's wreck;
Crossing the River Jordan, meeting people during Ramadan
Dreadlocks leading his caravan and heading to the Promised Land!
