They make their own rules <br />As if impeccable in knowing what is right; <br />They tell me that I should learn from them <br />And they try to keep me tight! <br /> <br />This world I am living in <br />Has so many that try to guide; <br />As if they are perfect in their way <br />As if they never slide! <br /> <br />I know I can learn ‘something’ <br />From these ‘flawless’ teachers; <br />But cannot stand their dogma <br />That their ‘something’ is ‘everything! ’ <br /> February 21,2011 <br /> Afincho Ber <br /> Addis Ababa<br /><br />Tsegaye Hailesilassie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-are-they-to-teach-me/
