Long time when children behave bad dem parents use to tell dem how dem gun call de old man. De old man was somebody who would carry dem away.
Well children use to behave. But times change and parents had to tell children that dem gun call de police. Again children use to frighten because police mean lock-up and lock up mean darkness and darkness mean terrible things.
People after a while use to laugh but is now dem understand when somebody threaten to call de police is serious business. Dem boys seh that is suh serious that now-a-days people does see police and run. Big men does run and children does hide.
And all that happen because a li’l boy claim how is true that police mean lock-up and lock-up mean darkness. Dem boys seh that lock up also mean pain.
Well things meet de stage wheh parents does tell children how dem gun send dem to Leonora. Leonora is methylated spirits and burn penis suh even big people scared.
But dem have other things that people frighten. Dem boys seh that dem never see so many people who couldn’t sleep. From de time dem shut dem eye, dem wake up screaming. Is nightmare after nightmare.
Dem boys seh that when dem send de people to dem psychiatrist and get dem fuh talk is a story that coming out. All of dem frighten de same thing. Dem boys seh that it tek time fuh get dem fuh talk bout de nightmare.
