Junior Words, 22



A High School Teacher’s Final List

List #5: (c) vilify, (d) palliative

Now, I want you to know that I think that your voice
Is not often so palliative.
See, so much of the time it’s unpleasant, my friend—
And I know that I’m doomed to forgive.

For, see, you are my friend, and I shouldn’t disown
A good person who’s so nice to me—
But, alas, your harsh voice is so challenging, Yo—
That I must vilify you, you see?
