there will be no:
electricity
running water
telephone
candles
there will be:
time for long days
drawing
letters
trips to town
swimming
time to
devote-Hannah
behind two doors side by side
play once, then repeat as necessary
the initial work is just a scratch
a framework meant to guide
three people, five tracks
three days in the same room
cans stacked tall
neighbors come by to complain
nervously listening in the next room
disappointed over time
worried about how the future will unfold
smiles kindly with some sadness beneath it
try again until its just right
steadily the beat plays on
-KM
