MEOW! I KNOW nuff o’ wunna believe in obeah, but do you honestly believe that them got people who could turn themselves into cats?
I asking wunna, cause recently, a woman was trying to convince me, that them got “high science” men ’bout here, who could turn themselves into animals.
However, she admitted that she had never seen it done, but her grandparents used to tell her ’bout a certain old businessman who would turn himself into a cat and come back in the business place at night to spy on the workers.
According to her, the workers soon heard about this, so one night a fella snuck up on the cat and give it a hard lash with a piece o’ stick ’cross its foot. The next day the old man came to work limping.
However, the same very week, sudden so, the fella who hit the cat just stand and turn bewitch, every piece o’ hair on his head drop out, he stopped bathing and his toe nails got long like galvanise nails, he started drinking rum and went mad, and ended up down at the mental walking on all fours and meowing like a cat.
Now I don’t believe in that foolishness, but them got some people ’bout here that believe in them things real strong.
Look, them got some people who does go work on mornings and before they drive a stroke them does open the bible to some particular Psalm and leave it on the desk to ward off the evil spirits.
Seriously, they got people who ain’t sitting down to work unless them walk around the desk backward a couple o’ times and make the sign of the cross.
Some does even walk with holy water and sprinkle it around the chair and use some to wipe off the phone. And if they get to work before you, they does sprinkle some o’ the holy water on your desk too, cause they frighten for you.
It is true, and when it comes to trapping a man some women don’t skylark. I hear ’bout women who boil up brassiere in tea and give men to drink and turn them bewitch. I also heard stories ’bout men who went at women and get panty and wig soup to drink and the next week them was mister and misses and up to now them ain’t sure how them got married.
All them could remember is one day them went by the woman and she cook cou cou and give them to eat and after that the next thing they remember was them dressed in a suit and people telling them congratulations on the marriage.
The poor fella got wedding pictures sticking the cake but can’t remember a thing.
The cou cou eat real good, but the fella aint know that the gravy get made with petticoat, brassiere juice, a pinch o’ dandruff and two armpit hairs. Now I don’t believe these things does work, but them got people who swear that they do.
I don’t know how true, but I also hear there are people who does commit all kinda crimes and every time they go court the cases does get throw out. Why? Because before they go court they does go to the obeah man, next thing you know they gone court with a lizard in a match box and a lime leaf in them underwear and the case get thrown out.
People say these things does work, I don’t feel so, but what you feel?
