MISS APPROPRIATION



There are many that say they would never use the 'N word'.
They still do because after saying the N the silent letters are automatically heard
Its meaning is well known and usage has not been deterred
Some claim a particular group are entitled to its use since they have had it reconfigured
A word formed with extreme contempt attempted to be beautified, that is utterly absurd
Embracing the term as though you own it only proves you have been mastered
Clearly it is an insult if you take offense if its originators again have it referred
Be first to end villain don't befriend for a second enemies keeping your world third
It is not a delicate test sent so you can have your cake and eat, it's just you eating turd
