Jamdung

The news comes on one,two, three lives gone again in a Jamdung Twelve dead in Mobay everybody worried  Uncles,aunts,brothers and sisters  everybody fall victim  Police have no answers,politicians drive by just another day in Jamdung After 5 gone you walk fast on the road Sweat pours down your face as you hear the first gun shot ring out Hands firmly placed on your heart as you hear the screams and shout People around you walk by as if nothing is wrong how comes nobody cares about crime in Jamdung? Children going missing everyday but we turn our faces the other way Then suddenly your sister is gone for days and you don't know what to do All of a sudden you see the faces of the girls you turned your face from Then it finally hits you crime is serious in Jamdung A text comes in on your phone saying congrats you have won You run to the bank to collect your millions Couple hours later your bank book is empty  Tears flow from eyes as you...

My Wish for Jamaica

Firstly, what a blessing it is to live in a country where we still are afforded many privileges. When I look around I don't have to look far to find something to smile about in Jamaica on the other hand however I don't have to look far either to find something to be sad about. The source of a Jamaica's many problems stems from selfishness. Selfishness from politicians,children,old people,teachers,pastors,selfishness can be found all over the island. When I enter a taxi I always pause to say good morning or good afternoon and am often met with strange stares as if I have done something wrong. People have sent me messages saying I bash my nation too much,really? Even when I address the negativity I always highlight the positivity. I want a change in my nation therefore I will make known the wrongs that I see taking place. Parents, the bible speaks to training up a child well when he is young and when he is old he will not depart from it yes that is true.But honestly I have ...

Trinidad vs Jamaica

Well well everyone making plans on boycotting Trinidad products well I for one am not interested in taking part in this 'new trend' think about it is it just recently that Jamaicans are seeing some sort of selfishness on the part of the Trinidadians? I'm not caught up in the hype and just because it's getting more focus now means I should join the line listen 13 days is just 13 days what happens after? Believe it or not people will continue to purchase the products.Why are Jamaicans not ready and willing to boycott American products? Some Jamaicans spend hundred of thousands of dollars to get a visa but then are rejected but they go out and complain and boycott all the favour products that Americans have in our country but then again would we even have anything left? We have strength for Trinidad however to plan this so called boycott. Listen to me Jamaica has far more problems than this boycott right now why don't we use the type to think about why countries are fi...

This World

  A world where people don't love you if you can't supply them with all the material things they need. A world where people marry just to get citizenship in a country. A world where the most educated aren't the ones given the best of jobs. A world where the television and internet are left to teach our children values. A world where the leaders of the church spend more money on church buildings tha n feeding the poor. A world where children receive guns before they receive a book to read. A world where in one half of the world people fight for an apple to eat while in the other we pick,choose and refuse what to eat. A world where we cry when we have no new clothes or shoes but some have never felt the warmth of a shirt and pants on their cold flesh. A world where politicians get increases in pay while the citizens are placed on wage freeze for years. A world where everybody proclaims they can't trust anybody. A world where girls value are always occupied with their look...

Value of Life

 Am I the only one who notices the reaction made whenever a police man is killed or someone of some importance in society. The topic of their death is the headline of every newspaper and fresh on the minds of ever politician. Is it then safe to say that some lives are valued more than others? I believe its's safe to say so.I remember a year back or so there was an incident with a police man beating a police man and it was captured on video, the man died due to the injuries he received. Just this year the police man walked away freely. Whenever someone from the inner city is killed yes it is televised but in a matter of time it is overlooked and we hear nothing of the incident anymore but when someone who is of importance someone with some status in society it is televised for weeks even months. To ask that this be changed would be like asking to open the heads of our people and placing new values and morals within them, simply impossible. Why do police men and politicians expec...

The Fight to Survive

The black man fought to simply continue to breathe the breath of life The shackles and chains rusted away but the memories of the will to survive are here for us to adapt Though the bodies of those who began the fight lay below us and we walk upon it day in day out Let us serve as a reminder to us a edifice for us to look unto a fountain flowing with golden water of promise They see the black of our skin even now and frown upon us They frown upon us not because we are black because we have always been black to them But because they see us standing in the same place that they left us We say we are determined to make our lives better but we still call them our idols and we adapt each and everything they do Our culture though still written on paper and carved in rocks from as far back as the Tainos Is quickly being erased from the minds of Jamaicans The fight to survive we say but are we really? Our young know more about the culture of foreign lands than they know...
