Look, this life you are living is not good; take a look at Jane Doe, she’s a living jumbie fashion book. Get Yuh Act Together. They have all types of sexually transmitted diseases out there, and you fool, boasting that they like to go bare. You have 8 pickney fuh 9 different men; yuh live in a shack and always on yuh back. Chubby, bimbo, corn curls with sweet milk are your children’s meals; woman, who nah hear would surely feel. Yuh think yuh doing something nice, ask Jane Doe with AIDS, she is paying the price. Get Yuh Act Together. Where are your morals? What example are you setting for your children? You have 8 children for 9 men, with 2 men claiming 1 child. What monkey see monkey do, and it will be a shame on you. Get off yuh back, put on some clothes and send people man through the door. The woman at the well had her sins forgiven; you too can be like that woman. Please change this life style, it nah good. Get Yuh Act Together.
