Words from a Teacher's Past, 47



“Words, words, words.”
    Hamlet (2.2)

List #9: (h) calamity, (i) domesticated

It seemed a sure calamity
A wolf now living in their house!
I guess they’d have to wait and see
If he would like to have a spouse?

Domesticated wolves are rare—
Or so, at least, I’ve often read.
You’d best be watchful—use some care—
Or end up being something fed.
