Teenager

He is very good at being a teen
He grunts in response to most everything
He is irritated when asked to clean
He can't seem to step away from his screen
He tries not to see how he still must lean
     on kind adults who know what he must glean
Who make sure he eats plenty of protein
Who encourage practices of good hygiene
Who make him refrain from evening caffeine
Who work to establish a solid routine
Who ensure he does homework in between
    the activities he'd rather convene

Change

Change is constant -
    but I do not have to go with its flow.

Change is good -
    but only if I am willing to grow.

Change is scary -
    but without, a dull life I would bemoan.

Change is an adventure -
    because I'm thrust outside my comfort zone.

Change is inevitable -
    because my life should not be a tableau.
