A Dusty Old Piano
June 3, 2015
The chipped keys of the piano
Are covered in a layer of dust
CRASH CRASH CRASH
Go the five deepest keys
Broken since I can remember
33 years between 1970 and 2003
A cap that is closed by an old broken piano
Music can close generation gaps
Connect you to your parents
Create parallels between the generations
My big blue eyes and open mouth
Gape at the photographer,
Who is the big blue eyes and open mouth
From 33 years before
More similar at three than we could understand
