Eeef you know how allyou does get me vex this time of the year. Results does come een and like it had mad pills in your beer. The people and dem practise hard, hard for months, but quarrel is all you have in your response. The judges and dem try hard to be fair, yet when results reach is like louse run in your hair.
It must have a formula to get rid of this,
something that work fast like Phensic or Vicks. Instead you keep kwart and head
out Buccoo Reef, you bawling and screaming how the judge and dem t’ief.
Remember the time Machel win the Road March,
and was like somebody iron your drawers with cornstarch. Everywhere you did
turn was somebody grumbling, or behaving in ways that was extremely disturbing.
A man pull a gun for a girl in a bar, a next one kneel down and pray to a star.
Now don’t get me wrong, I know how it can turn,
you don’t need a rule book to express your concern. But it would help if you
take a lil time, to acquaint yourself with how the rules line by line. The
judges come from here and most try to be fair, yet you cussing and vexing like
if they don’t care.
A time a man from Grande lose a bet on the pan,
he had to run naked all the way Tableland. A next one he say Gypsy go beat them
in song, lose all he money and selling chilli bibi in town.

Now some of you must be wondering and saying,
that Wes take a drink or still jumping and playing, but oh lord I have now to
declare, I can’t take the grumbling about how all things unfair.
Pan remains the greatest thing we does do,
better than everything else we pursue. Whether is oil or gas or financial
affairs, everything else does leave we in arrears. Congrats Renegades and All
Stars you won our hearts, with excellence in the practice of musical arts.
XO we love you and for you it was hard, but coming
third didn’t mean you were bad. BJ, Khan and Ainsworth you worked like a team, and
this year’s arrangement soared high like a dream.
Not taking anything from Duvone or Smooth, to
do that would be mindless and rude. These two genius have no limits on talent
and skill, obligations to their great bands they always fulfil. I followed
their arrangements from the prelims, the songs grew new torsos, organs and
limbs, crescendos and flourishes melodious rifts, such wonders contained in
your musical gifts.

Now that the storm has ended and calmed, and
soon everybody will be waving a palm. Doh quarrel and fight about who win or
lorse, collective creativity will always be boss.
On this quiet Ash Wednesday we know, we have a
whole nation to nurture and grow. Pan, kaiso, street theatre and mas, a whole
nation does be audience and cast. I was never a fan of much of this, outside of
pan which brings so much bliss. But we can do all without being drunken or
high, or believing in miracles that come from the sky.
We live in a place where love and imagination,
is more than the passing tide of an undeclared vacation. For the rest of the
year, the pans won’t go quiet, for music is something with a limitless diet.
The kaiso need work and the mas’ could be better, a new Minshall can come and
be the trendsetter.

All ah this make me resort to couplet and metre,
de Carnival fare was so much better and sweeter. I wasn’t there with scant
clothes in the street, yet this was more than who did or did not compete. Now
on this Ash Wednesday there is much work to be done, the real answers to which
was a part of the fun.
Let’s do this!
