The Wrath of Nicole

Jamaica is not new to tropical storms nor hurricanes they are always visiting the island some even find mates and produce offspring.  However, Nicole took us by surprise, actually Matthew was here last week we thought he had left but he had in-fact left some of his belonging Nicole came searching for him and realizing that when she got here he had just left was mad “earth hath no scorn like a woman’s fury” and furious she was in deed.

As the Jamaica saying goes “she deal wid the matter propa” and she pour it out pon Jamaica although we had nothing to do with the break up of she and  Matthew.  So for six (6) days now she has been taking revenge and she is leaving no stone un-turn.  The last I heard was that 8 persons lost their lives.  Not even the church was spared, the newly refurbished Baptist Church in Savanalar lost its roof while several houses were destroyed.  She then came to Kingston and “all hell broke loose”  She destroyed the bridge that linked the eastern part of the island to Kingston and so the people on that side of the island can only come as far a Harbour View.  Houses were washed into gullies, walls collapsed and homes flooded out.  Other parishes were also affected these included Clarendon, St. Catherine and St. Elizabeth.  It is not a pretty sight right now.  So if anyone knows where Matthew is right now could you please let us know so we can inform Nicole because I just heard that she has send for assistance and two of her relatives are on their way enroute to Jamaica.  Lord help Jamaica Land We Love.  We cannot manage Nicole and her family.

Anyway, between me and you, the person who a bawl the most right now is Prime Minister Bruce Golding.  Bwoy, “every whey him tun macka juck him”  Hush papa Bruce a so life go.  Mi nuh know whey them a go get so much money fi fix back the road dem whey Nicole mash up because Aunty Edith nah play wid him so him haffi pay she an her nurse dem, the civil servant dem sey dem want f I dem to and the teacher dem just a kotch f I dem ear fi hear a when money a drop fi stretch out f I dem han too.  It rough bad.

So until wi talk again, mi a go pack up fi go home now because nothing nah gwan a work rain did a fall an nobody nuh come so mi a go home go cook some salt mackerel and green banana.
