35816 - The little teacher

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athina Kehagias

The little teacher
of the theatrical play
well resembled
those
appointed
to such positions
who assume
that they teach,
whereas they simply
are working
because they are assigned
to a permanent position
without however admitting
that if it wasn’t
compulsory on account
of their paycheck
they would’ve never
bothered with students
because the only thing
of real
importance
it’s merely
their very selves.
