do whatever you want forever


I saw a man walking along a paved road

the yellow line oblivious to him

We had picked up a piano

that its owner no longer wanted

or maybe the piano was wanted

but couldn't be kept

I saw a man walking along a paved road

alone

in blue and white plaid

the yellow line oblivious to him

and I thought,

that must be a lonely road to walk.

My family got the piano off Facebook Marketplace, believe it or not. I'm trying to learn to play Dogsong by Toby Fox. I have the first few seconds of the song memorized; hooray!
