So, who are you?
Mr Teacher.
Oh yes. And what do you teach?
I teach people what they already know.
And what’s that?
That they have nothing to learn.
And how long does that take?
Usually, many, many lifetimes.

Of hard work?

Of hard suffering.

If you are born Mr Rabbit,
you will have long ears
and can hear Mr Fox coming.
But you cannot hear Mr Farmer
before his bullet hits your head.

If you are born Mr Dog,
you will have lots of rabbits
to choose from.
But all the other dogs
will sniff your bottom.
and Mr Man will put a leather strap round your neck.

If you are Mr Man,
you will have lots of rabbits to eat
and dogs with necks
to put your leads on.
But Mr Teacher will put a cage
in your brain
so that you can dance in his circus.
