When I was a kid
I wanted to learn how

but my parents couldn’t
afford to buy me a
a whole piano,

but they did get me the
piano stool.

So, mostly,
I practiced my posture.

And you know what?
I got good.

And yet, my posture was booed at Carnegie Hall. Or, maybe it was that I was in the front row and wouldn’t sit down.

Ahh, OK, now I get it. I know, earlier, I said, ‘tracked’, but I just didn’t want you to think I wasn’t up on the latest neologism.

I sometimes wonder whatever became of my old piano teacher, Mrs. Johnson. A nice lady, but I just didn’t have any interest in learning classical piano.

We had a piano and a piano bench. I’ve been playing the piano for over 50 years and still have lousy posture.

Funny! At least you kept playing. I enjoyed your post, too, and should have followed, but I will correct that now. Thanks for reading. Edit: I don’t see a follow button but I saved the site nevertheless.
