JUMBIE

{Jumbie Pipe}
Extracts from “Day in the life of Abby an Emancipated colonist”.
Jumbie lef hee pipe here?
No! Sa! No! Sa!
Jumbie lef hee pipe here?
No! Sa! No! Sa!
Wha kina gate this?
Iron gate this!
You mean I can’t break it?
No! Sa! No! Sa!
Wha kina gate this?
Iron gate this!
Jumbie lef hee pipe here.
As kids the No! Sa! Sa! Sounded like No! Ka! No! Ka! It is funny how words take on different sounds and means the same thing and sometimes can mean nothing. Sa! is also the creoles for sir. A Jumbie is an evil spirit that is believed to be able to engulf a person.
In this {Ring game}, the person is outside of the ring trying to break in.
