Shhh… don’t tell nobody..
Don’t tell a soul…
It’s too much to dwell on…
Too much to tell about…
The sad state of life…
Sometimes it makes me …
tremble…
Here I stand today, at nineteen years old…
Yet I can still remember that warm christmas day…
On which I fell prey to a one year old…
Don’t tell nobody………..
Brothers and sisters, I do indeed believe, in fact, that we are in a sad state…
The signs of the times are upon us!!! The Holy Book did say that mother would turn against daughter in the last days, and son against father…
But lo and behold!!! The times have brought baby against adult… infant against big man…
My account is not one for the faint of heart, for this is serious…
There I lay one day, taking it easy over the holidays.. when I was approached by my year old cousin… who I’d like to term… The Deceiver… with her cute, innocent little face, bright shiny eyes and drooly mouth… and so I said to her… “you cute little thing!! Come on in the bed and stay with me!!!”
She smiled.
And my guard was dropped.
So there we lay, skin to skin, looking deeply into each others eyes…
So deeply… I was mesmerized… and I said to her..
“your eyes are so pretty and shiny and black…”
And she looked into my eyes, and said with a smile, “bu- bu-bu-aaaahhhhhh!!!”
So I said, “You’re welcome.. ” and turned away to look at something else.
Wrong move.
We should all know how jealous women are. So, because I stopped giving her attention, she turned on me!!!!!
Next ting I know is this hand comes down and attempts to take out my eye…
So I turn and say “what the heck is your problem!!!”
She smiles deviously and screams, “ahhh-ba-babbb-bab…!!!!” Which I think meant “how dare you!!! You’ll never look at another baby!!”
So I said- “whaaat????!!” which is when she grabs for my mouth and attempts to twist it off my face!!!! Then she slaps and slaps and slaps!!!!! So I grab for this pillow to shield me from the blows and her mouth water which was flying all over the place in her fury…
So she stops… and peeks under there at me as I cower from fear.
Then she moves away… all is quiet… and I think it’s over…
But the Deceiver then becomes like the Hulk and muscles that pillow off of me, then begins to rain a barrage of beating down on me… after trying again to rearrange my face, screeching and scratching at me like an angry puss, chucking off into my chest and knocking the air out of me, and beating the heck out of me like a mi a di pickney, she finally heard my pleas for mercy… and saw my tears… or maybe it was her mouth water near my eyes… and she stopped.
And looked at me as I looked at her… we looked deep into each others eyes as before…
“…ok, I’m sorry…I’ll never take my eyes off you again… “ I manage to whisper.
She looks down at me as I lay there… with I think… compassion in her eyes…
And I think she believes me and is sorry too.
So she moves her face closer to mine… I think she wants us to kiss and make up…
So I get closer to her too… only for her to put her wet, cold likkle mout’ on my nose… which wouldn’t have been so bad if her drool had stayed on her mouth and not escaped into my nose…
Talk about adding insult to injury…
So I did what I should have done a long time ago…
I pushed the young woman off me, put on my shoes, and left…
