There is an old saying .. \"those who can, do and those who can\'t, teach\" .. and whilst I do believe there is some truth in this .. it still doesn\'t give anyone the right to be so bloomin rude .. A truly captivating Y shaped poem Tristan .. Neville

I don’t think the question can be answered other than to remind that there are bad actors among humanity. Having noted that is not to dismiss the pain of your experience, Tristan.
I’d like to acknowledge your formatting. I made an attempt quite early on to attempt a novel layout or two and failed miserably. Those that do (and you are among a small elite group) I can only salute as I do you.

This is so well written, but it speaks to me of a really dark place. Deep and suffocating in its sorrow. I hope there was a glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel that you could hold on to. Without hope we are finished. Excellent reflection Tristan.

Teachers are there to encourage and inspire. So sad that in this case this woman failed so badly and the effects were long lasting. This poem made me reflect on some of my own teachers. A right mixed bunch they were. A nice piece of reflection Tristan. All good wishes.

Happens all to often, teachers completely dismissive of the young people they are there to nurture, encourage, inspire and build confidence in. This poem shows all to clearly what effect and how long that effect will last on a young person as they go out into the world. Very well written, but in that format i found it very difficult to read, Great piece

Heart breaking. A teacher\'s job is to teach and with out incentive you loose the fish without bait you can not datch it. Encourage don\'t discourage. Well done

Been there, done a variation of that; what sticks with me at this junction is the fork that forms as we branch out. Not everyone will be on our branch. Funny, but true. 👍🏻Walking off from this with a myriad of thoughts. 🙏🏻 Y?

This will send us nutty - there was a guy who answered \'why?\' to every statement, if it was a question or not! He should keep taking the anti-nutty tablets. lol.

I always asked myself whether hope is an outcome of leap of faith or is it rooted in knowledge and experience. Never could find the answer. The poem opened the door of those thoughts - perhaps, opened doesn\'t do justice, more like banged open.
Brilliant poem!

This work of art has more layers than a string of onions .. & depending on which way it is viewed is deeper than the Mariana Trench .. The way you have strung it together is very clever too .. dipping & diving rather than merely bobbing up n down with some kind of undercurrent or surface flow .. and talk about being of the moment, or timely .. well it don\'t need three wise men to see where you are coming from .. But hey, hang on, there we go again .. maybe we do 🐧..🐧..🐧.. Although emoticons and emojis are thought to be a 21st century thing, they have been around since forever .. often added for fun or to codify messages when used .. Here they add a seasonal dimension and added uniqueality (that\'s my own neologism) to make the reader dubble check the messages his or her own brain have arrived at .. a bit like a - or a pause or gap .. The rhyme structure & additional poetic forms are the icing on the Christmas cake .. which serve to reinforce my pre-existing belief that you are a far braver man than me .. 😎🌹🎄🧑🎄👍

Dear Tristan kudos on your message, Christmas is a joy if you have all you need to make it so, a different show for those who have nothing or very little. All the light and all the darkness shows in here. Brilliant. 🌹
