I try to teach them,
but they blow paper
out their nose
I try to teach them,
but they wallow on the
dirty floor
I try to teach them,
but they make noises
with their mouths
and try to color instead
and mumble instead
and won’t read instead
and can’t read instead
I try to teach them,
but it is like arm wrestling
a many-limbed mythical
creature
so they teach me instead.
