Miguel walks into the classroom.
The door creaks as he pushes it open.
There's not much noise outside yet.
The streets wake up later.
He arranges the desks, turns on the lights.
Dust is everywhere, the windows don't shut properly,
and the wind drags sand inside.
The kids start coming in, slowly.
Not all of them.
Some won't show up at all, but it doesn't matter.
Miguel starts anyway.
The chalk breaks between his fingers.
He teaches like someone's really paying attention.
Sometimes they are, sometimes they're not.
Outside, the noises beginmotorbikes, shouting.
The kids glance at him, then drift off again.
But he keeps going.
He's not sure if education can really change them anymore.
Maybe not.
Maybe he's doing this because it's the only thing he knows how to do.
