Listen! Being a boy or girl
doesn't matter, if you develop the habit of turning your back on good guidance
and the wisdom that your mom's trying to impart; if you think helping with
household chores or errands is a mom or maid thing, or will make a mess of your
‘Swag’ perhaps; if you hate doing anything, yet you want everything, maybe
thinking that your mom is too raw to manage your affairs, if she has to plead
with you to obey her instructions...
If all you could offer from
school was a note saying how habitually ill-behaved you’re, I swear down you’ll
grow up to busy yourself on things of no value, you’ll wear an empty backpack or purse [Bagi-Poxotane] containing a scanty
makeup kit perhaps, and one China phone; you’ll pointlessly be sprinting
between the Traffic Lights and Senegambia area, claiming the stupid cliché that
“there’s no time” [‘Wator Mang Soto’,‘Jot Amut’], when as it happens, time is
the only thing you've in abundance.
If you don’t make appropriate and
sincere amends, none of your justifiable ‘hustle’ or “Raba-Raba” will work out,
and you wouldn't have cause to blame anyone but your misguided self. Shit’s Karma my dear, they say it’s a b*tch and I believe
If you ask me, don’t take
disrespectful behaviour for stubbornness, and when you do what you do, bear in
mind that every action has a consequence -May this generation and the ones to
come be blessed with dutiful kids and painstaking parents; parents who’ll be
able to meet their responsibilities. That way, no parent will blame any
specific generation whilst absolving the generation that nurtured that
generation. Amen!
