Junior Words, 93



A High School Teacher’s Final List

List #19: (e) exiguous, (f) propitious

The evidence? Exiguous.
The witnesses? Not one.
The signs are not propitious for
Forgiving what you’ve done.

So—were I you?—I’d move away—
And I would do it soon.
The cops, I’ve heard, are on the way
And then, for you, high noon!
