Me try haad haad fuh brukway,
talk proper
hat potato inna me mout,
fuh steam out d-sin-taxs
in English metering
an design calypso
inna two step waltz
of military timing
but
too much genip fasten pun man lip
too much jamoon stain pun man tongue.

WATCH!
How do you. . .?’
Deh! Right deh!
Pip on d-tip
but befo he get chance
fuh mek d-trip
BADAM!
Wha a go on?’
tassay pass d-tongue
Bell ring
An bus gone

An is Metagee, Percy,
shurt wrap roun a curry
Ga fuh tek d-blame
WHEN
Why did you do that?’
Get heself tangle up an
Wa mek
tripse out crips-crips.

An moreworser dan dat is
when bad blood raise up
ruckshus wit vexation
pashway is d-iration
non finite predicate
preposition objective
adjective of noun
Is Toad an Fogarty bundown

When all is said
chups an done
wha leff is a cent ice
feeling d-high-noon sun
BUT
you see when TY-P fuel passion
sweet like sugar cake
guava jelly,
condense milk pun shave-ice cone
not wooing
nor romancing
ode an sonnet
gat fuh dress down

Is tattle I tattling
sooring I sooring
call an’ refrain
serious like bleeding cane.
