My contest entry:)
A Rosetta Stone for the Parents of Teenagers

Use my face
As your Rosetta stone.

Don’t listen to the words I say,
You won’t understand.

You may think I speak truth,
When all I tell you are lies.

Watch my lips,
What form do they take?

Watch my cheeks,
Are they blushed… or pale?

My face is yours,
Your Rosetta stone.

Just look into my eyes,
And may finally understand.
