A High School
Teacher’s Final List
List #7: (a) hoary, (b) probity
Stan lowered his poor hoary head—
And felt himself fill up with dread.
All the corruption he could see—
A challenge to his probity.
But Stan resolved to do what’s right—
The human side of this long fight.
So he reported all the crooks
Who’d cooked the firm’s financial books.
And his reward? No need to guess.
Not one of them would dare confess—
Instead, they passed the blame to Stan,
Who then became a broken man.
