Hiding from Child Support, this aint no Submarine Fool! PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 18 September 2007 08:30

I thought maybe someone would notice I was missing, and maybe come bail a brother out, but that didnt happen. Boat people can be so cold. I got this ex that had the dogs out for my ass, trying to get this so-called 'child support'. Far as I can see, it wasnt supporting nothing but her sorry new boyfriends couch habbit. I dont think she could put her hands on my (our) boy if she bet her life on it. Hell, I aint seen him either, but I aint the one that went to the judge like I been tucking him in every night. You know, long after the Fathers day cards quit coming, that check still got to find its way over to where you used to live. So, I thought I could buy some time by cashing out my check from time to time over at the beer store, and paying for shit with cash and money orders. I got me a p.o. box, and switched jobs so smooth It took my shadow a minute to find my ass!! I just wanted to put a few dollars together to take care of some things, and try to get a ahead. I figured I would kick back in when the boy called me needing money, not her. Let me tell you something, she called the law on me and it didnt take them two days to pick me up. Said they had talked to my sister and she told them where my boat was. I lost the job, the money, and my sister for a minute- I aint hating on her for needing the money I owed her too, but she could have warned me. You cant make money to pay anybody sitting in jail. Now I feel like, its better to just keep chopping away steady at it, than to try to bust a few moves to get ahead. My old lady said if I had sent her twenty bucks a couple times a week, she would have probably let me slide, instead of trying to hide on the boat. Its a Tug Boat, not a damn submarine, and if they want you, they gonna get you. I heard they calling me 'Red October'on my old boat. Aint that a bitch.
