Pignorant



I use the word pignorant
Not meaning to imply
That all pigs are ignorant
But as it may apply

Root hog root my grandmother
Used to say in other
Words do what you have to do
To stubbornly break through

But despite their stubbornness
The pigs down on the farm
Blow up big but mean no harm
If greedy nonetheless

When humans act like pigs though
They never do it well
Porcine overlords from hell
Who though they never grow
Blow up bigger even so

Though humans I suppose
Those big pigs that heaven knows
Are close enough to call
Pignorant and hope they fall

Pigs who do not get it
So the reference I guess
Living to regret it
Is to their pigheadedness

Dead hands hold the controls
Kept us ignorant this way
Already sold their souls
Ready to be swept away

I do not want to be
Pignorant but to be free

I know of one such pigheaded fool. He blows up and brags all the time. Empty promises.

This one had real meaning for me.

Poor pigs to have "pignorant" humans named after them. Stubbornness blended with ignorance can be dangerous in these troubled times.
