Title of the CD.


The Romantic Piano

I'm playing the most annoying Classical
music ever.
On the stereo.
Sounds like scales and chopsticks
all mixed together.
Loud too.
To drown out the noisy
washing machine.
The neighbors must think
I've gone mad.
Dredging up the ghost
of dear old Dad.
This music meant
something to him.
To me it's just noise.
I play it anyway.
