So much Ignut stuff goin roun ain't it
ignut.

c.2003 M. Bennett Hooper

I wonder why some people are predisposed to actualize a
Preponderance for denominating intelligence.
That’s what I said .
And this is what I mean.
Why in the hell are so many folks just ignut?

Like they set out to practice ignut shit.
Like you see um with a $800. car with $2000. Rims and
A recording studio size stereo speaker in the car trunk
And a guy riding shotgun on a loudspeaker wondering
Why these snooty bitches don’t speak to him.

And Baby Girl has chartreuse hair on her head with light
Blue eye shadow and gets attitude cause the posse
Said she looked stupid.
Ignut for no reason.
Like they apply for employment and answer the sex
Question not with male or female but answer
Three times weekly.
Ignut. Ignut.

And Baby Boy and Baby Girl have five developmentally challenged
children named A through E and they cal them Boo, Hoo, Whose, Mine and yourn.
They wonder why the kids are failing in school.
Ignut.

Like the clothes they buy and wear daily cost more than their section 8 rent, and the food pantry is empty but they are sharp dressers.
Really fresh.
Ignut, and you have to be careful because the shit is contagious.
Think not?
Then perhaps you are one of the few who has never done anything Ignut.
I know I have.
I’m up here reading this ain’t I.
Writin it and posting. Ignut.
