How to Keep a Woman Happy

 


It seems obvious, but the first rule to keep a woman happy, is to tie her to a shopping cart…

You can also try other things, when you are broke, to keep a woman happy…

For example, call her sweet things: morning dew, chocolate, coconut, pineapple, toothpaste, cupcake… a little flattery goes a long way and laughter can make her forget – for a minute – the shopping cart that you haven’t tied her too.

The second rule to keep a woman happy… again, tie her to a shopping cart… but when you are broke, promise her… with an earnest face, lying through the teeth… promise her a part of the world… exotic places like Kenya and Kiribati, beach walks down in Diani, a trip to Japan… weave magic tales of when you’ll take her there.

The third rule… the shopping cart, but when the economy isn’t kind to you, write little poems to her: Your cheeks - yellow mangoes, your smile – dandelion flowers, your lips – Kenyan coffee, Your skin – Kenyan tea… for a day or two, she will forget about the shopping cart… Then, brother, go and work your arse off to afford tethering her to a shopping cart.

The fourth rule to keep a woman happy… You are a blessed man. You are endowed with God’s blessings… You have a mighty bamboo, not lousy chopsticks… Then, you will make a woman happy eternally. Perhaps, two women… or three. Four, won’t be a problem either… make that five, six, seven… who is counting, anyway… they aren’t.

Gossip this morning

 I heard this morning, that… The price of unga, is about to go up I heard this morning, that the price of unga, is coming down I heard this morning, that the government, it has banned, unga Perhaps, the speaker meant, burnt Either way, our bellies, they burn Some, of hunger Others, belly full. I heard mid-morning, that, oil, is scarce Or, for cars, the speaker, he mumbled about. I heard mid-morning, that, he has passed us Or, the pastor, is us The messiah, he plays games. I heard in the afternoon, the government, is broke The weather, out of order The war, just In my afternoon, there was no peace. In the evening, I held counsel My ears, blocked with wax My eyes, blinded in tears My tongues, stilled in fury These things, they are not for me Screams of - baby Isak Shrieks of - Fatuma Howls of – Abdi Bombs, play toys Up above, silver streaks The rain, violent For a Utopia, the soldier man.

My-Once Molly (thinking of Valentine),

My-Once Molly… the girl who broke my heart, the one who got away, the one who promised me the world and left me to survive alone – typical of our Kenyan politicians… I hope you are good. Now, as February – the month of love – lurks about, I find myself thinking of you. Thing is, my dear Molly, I have new neighbours. A young couple, very much in love like we once were. The young lady, her name is Val… maybe Valentine… I don’t know. This Val, a spirited girl with rich, deep, heaving laughter - almost like yours. Her smile… ah! You should see it. The shine of the morning sun distilling the dew upon cool meadows… I am totally in love with her. Alarmingly, she teases me much and I am getting ideas… Molly, dear, wherever you are, please pray for me… the temptation is too much. If you don’t, the frail creature that I am may fall. This, despite having numerous songs in my playlist to warn me. Invariably, Majengo – that infamous locale – does a dishonourable appearance in most of them… ‘Maj...
