A sign of the times

Friends, I am not in the politics thing, but this one couldn’t pass me. Could the absence of a crowd (25) at the much-hyped event be a sign from God (26)? Main road block off early; line-up of known crowd pullers, so what really happen then? If there was a ‘flop of the year’ award, no one could beat dat.

People, if yuh know yuh have puppies (11, 34) in yuh yard, what does it take to secure di gate so dat dem don’t get out! It wasn’t a pretty sight to see all four (4) puppies sprawl out dead (3) pon di road. No man, oonu must do better.

I never know that man can free others of their sins. Seems someone has vested the holier-than-thou churchman (29) with that power, or is him tek it onto himself? Whatever it is, some sins cyaan cure just so.

Bwoy, di line of traffic (31) heading to the big establishment (33) get longer every Christmas. It would help if some of these people, particularly the rotund men and women (23, 22), just park dem vehicle and walk. After all, ah di cake (20) dem a run dung. More time.
