The Relation Ship
Wait!!!!!!!!! Hold on!!!!!!!!!!! Please read carefully!!!!!!!!
Hopefully, I would've gotten your undivided (always wondered why not unmultiplied) attention by my elegantly clever use of exclamation marks. Or so I hoped...
The thoughts expressed herein and henceforth do not at all mimic, resemble, imitate or ape any experiences that I have had in past relationships, my lovely present relationship, or any future relationships if there are any. If you do not understand this, kindly start from the beginning and read it again, and again, and again till you understand this. With that said...
To me, the crux of a relationship is in it's name. relationSHIP. Yes a ship, a 1) boat, where 2) both people are involved and sometimes ship happens along the journey. Being floatatious (not sure if that's a word) in the nature, a ship must travel by sea. You see, sea best describes a relationship, sometimes the ride is smooth, the sun is out, the wind is blowing and you're cruising along nicely. Other times, the ride is rough, there's a storm brewing, lightning and thunder, brimstone and fire, rain beating down at your face, you can't see clearly ahead, not too sure where you are going. You think about abandoning ship.
Then some ships like to island hop. That is de horner man and horneress (female). I wonder if female is a Jamaican word? Jamaicans say "fi" (pronounced fee) which in proper English means "for". So fi male, for man? Just wondering... (feminists, please, go and cool yuhself with a mauby fizz, I was jus joking)
Others, prefer to roam the seas alone, and like a military ship, not letting any other vessels come close. Using bombs, torpedos and all sorts of weapons of mass destruction to defer potential suitors who may want to jump on board.
Some like boats of a similar nature, yes, a guy ship liking buoys.
Some reach a stage where they produce smaller boats, dinghies. But then somewhere along the way ship happens and some dinghies go with the daddy boat and some stay with the mommy boat.
Some ships take things for granted like the Titanic. Not looking for the obstacles ahead. Next thing big hole in de boat and they produce two movies after your sorry self.
Some ships might be musical like David Rudder.
Some ships move fast. Hello ship, I am ship. Next thing de two ships join and is a catamarang in a year or two.
Other ships move slowly. They take some time to tie the knots.
Some ships' radars need to be active. Always looking for another boat to cruise behind. That's de horner thing again.
Me? I don't know, hoping one day to put down my anchor with the hope that it's the right place, at the right time and the depth required is there...
