So Many So Called Teachers... Poem by DM W

So many so called teachers, predominantly
From my local area, constantly look at
My wide array and plethora of articles
On Linkedin. Yet they never, ever feel the urge
To comment on them. Even if they happen to
Fundamentally disagree, I wholeheartedly
Welcome their thoughts. It seems rather bizarre to
Me, as I write about all manner of things from
Poetry to politics, from Renaissance art
And modern paintings to Shakespeare's major plays;
From postmodernism to English history;
From religion to sociology; from films
To psychology; from philosophy to Greek
Mythology. OMG, surely, there must be
SOMETHING among that little lot which appeals to
Them! In my eyes, at least, it speaks volumes about
Current obsessions with phony business models;
That clearly are not fit for purpose and tick box
Educationalsystems and increasingly
Narrow curricula. Odo these people no
Longer perceiveteaching as a noble and highly
Rewardingvocation? ! O do they not discuss
Weightysubjects and topics anymore?Perhaps,
They're just incredibly bored or apathetic.
Surely, they should be the ones I naturally
Gravitate towards. Where else, pray tell, do I turn?
It could be that they're ignoring me because I'm
Freelance, and they envy me as they're still in chains.
Maybe, they no longer feel that they need to learn
Anymore, unlike committed scholars. Yet why
Do they persist on viewing EVERY article.
That I post. Surely, they can find other things to
Entertain them. O why are they so curious?
Why bother? It's so puzzling. to me! Indeed,it
Makes no sense whatsoever! It defies logic!
Yet, after ruminating about this matter
For some considerable time, I think I know the reason.
So I write this with a mischievous grin spread
All over my shining face. In all honesty,
It does not seem to me that they are equipped
To read anything that probes or challenges things.
I imagine them as dogs; being shown card tricks.
