Cheating: "Til death do us Part"

After following the news stories and headlines regarding the fatal shooting and death of dancehall artiste, 50-year-old Wayne 'Captain Barkey' Hamilton and 30 something-year-old Tracy Bennett, I was inclined to write this titillating piece.  I was prompted to wait for this post because I somehow knew that the story had an ending.  In anticipation and with some minor revision, I have managed to incorporate the unexpected events that followed.

 It is alleged that the two had an extramarital affair which ended very tragically due to a wrathful, unforgiving ex.  This love triangle which ended very tragically, have stirred up alot of frenzy amongst everyone who followed the story but I have managed to diverge the attention a bit to form the basis of the reality of  pumpum supremacy.  Over time we have seen men in fight of flight, countries at war, and even death fall upon men, all in the name of the ‘P.’  Believe it or not and as ridiculous as it may sound, this incident has not shown otherwise. 

Imagine one woman, two men and the frightening feud that escalated over the ‘P.’  Of course, this is not the norm; it is usually two women headed by the Lust of one man in a typical love trio.  In this scenario both men came under sovereignty rule whether knowingly or unknowingly; the only difference is that one is willing to kill for it while the other is willing to die for it.  Might seem quite odd and peculiar that these two men with similar requisites are actually willing to sacrifice everything for something they can get from another woman but whatever it is that the ‘P’ possesses, it’s beyond the realm of this world's understanding.  It is hoped that feud ended here and it didnt continue in the afterlife.   

Questions have surfaced around trying to understand who the pums really belongs to or who can claim entitlement to it but the reasoning is still a mystery.  We know for certain that these two men would not put up a fight for this young lady’s good looks, great body, her intricate, intelligent mind or her great attitude.  One thing’s for sure though is that the ‘P’ has a magnitude of worth and prominence.  There is no dollar amount that can be placed on it but it has invoked feelings of pride, jealousy and mortality.  For the mindful and intrigued, let us play up the possibilities and take it up a notch to gather a more utilitarian view of the matter.

When we think of the word Power, words such as control, influence, authority, rule, dominance, muscle etc. comes to mind.  Did I mention ‘muscle?’ Who would have thought of the muscle gripping characteristic of the “P?”  Need I say more?  Would it make any sense to say that the power is in the ‘grip’? No pun intended.  Is it physical and or mental?  For the most part, this is an understatement of how much the pussy warrant to both men and women.  In heterosexual relations one must really admit that the ‘P’ is the fuel or drive in every sexual encounter leading to a very happy ending.   Through its innate abilities, it can also work and operate in just about any condition.  There is no distinction in measurement, size & fit.  Its resilience is also astounding, hence, there’s no need to make mention of its permanence.

Many have sung, written, and researched about its uh oh goodness but no one said it better than the man himself, popular reggae artiste, Shabba Ranks, who dubbed: “who say that woman can dunn. Tell them seh woman caan dunn.  One juke, one wash, then u tun it dun, open u foot, a next man welcome.”  It ‘Caan Dunn.’   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMaxL9Pu6Mc .  RIP Captain Barkey also dubbed, man a gi Bun & a get back Bun, whey u call dat?  Bun fi Bun.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNTulUXxY8Y.  In Jamaica the word Bun is a popular term given for infidelity so in other words he said that if someone is being unfaithful and receive it back then it cancels out everything. 

However, his simple logic double crossed him and the events surrounding his death invalidate such an idea because above all else, Pumpum rules - it brings life and indeed does taketh  three lives.  It is hoped that both men & women take valuable notes on this eye opener. Three selfish people in their own rite leaving an unforgettable mark in the minds and memories of many. So many people's lives affected by this mess and all three took the exit to all the pain and humiliation. This is so real and so much closer to home than we may think. This is definitely no Romeo & Juliet masterpiece, neither was there an happy ending but it all goes to show the power of the pums and the heartbreaking weaknesses in men.
