tEAChers aRe NoT aLL the SaMe
the calculus of living
in Singapore or Smolensk
or Saigon to say nothing
of Sapporo or San Diego
has little to do with
physics or geometry
whether or not
figuring the radius
of a flower
you use a slide rule
the circumference
of a wedding ring
has little to do with
happiness or love
explaining
subjunctives
helps nobody
nominative absolutes
in any language
have no value
neatly kept numbers
in grade books
are dead
Maybe Tolstoy was right

Loved those words, the circumference of the wedding ring was especially interesting to me. And the photos, it just shows me how much more I have to learn.
Loved this post, thanks.
