another rosetta stone will not do it
was this text part of an ancient scroll?
the meaning was clear to no one
the beauty is in the ambiguity of the piece
I stared at the other archeologist
what did he mean by this?
Was he covering his ignorance?
I figured this might be it
we need another Rosetta Stone my companion said
then we would understand
I did not think that would do it
not only was it ambiguous, it was unclear and cloudy
perhaps written by a person with a mental illness
I kept this to myself, feeling a bit superior to them
