A High School Teacher’s Final List

List #10: (e) arrant, (f) egregious

Perhaps you’re not an arrant fool—

Perhaps you’re really kinda cool—

Perhaps you’re an egregious dork—

Perhaps your prom date was a stork—

Perhaps—no, really—you’re my friend—

And all your problems you’ll transcend—

And I’ll be better—due to you—

I hope you feel the same way, too.
