Junior Words, 89



A High School Teacher’s Final List

List #18: (g) assiduous, (h) egalitarian

The termites were assiduous—
All very busy, working there.
We were concerned about the fuss
We heard in walls—well, everywhere.

But I’m egalitarian—
In spring and winter, summer, fall—
And so I didn’t kill just one—
I killed them—every one—yes, all!
