And the air pours in with piano notes
In its skirts, as though to say, “Look, John,
I’ve brought these and these”—that is,
A few Beethovens, some, Brahmses,
A few choice Poulenc notes. . .#WeatherStormASongOrPoem #HashtagGames

"Such simple things, and we make of them something so complex it defeats us, Almost."
“Make things as simple as possible, but not simpler.”
