A (Sort-of) Piano of One's Own

I've known 

how to play piano 

for 

32 years.

I've never
played a piano
that
belongs to me.

Today 

I played a piano 

that belongs to me 

because 

I bought one*

yesterday.

Finally.

For it's cherry-popping occasion,

I played 

Rhapsody in G Minor (Op. 79 No. 2) by Brahms .... 

straight through,

standing 

because it was 12:15 a.m. 

(and too late to figure how 

to adjust the stand height),

wearing headphones 

because it was 12:15 a.m.

(and I've got an upstairs neighbor),

playing the Brahms Rhapsody

because it's the only song on earth 

I play well

from memory.

It may be just 

a Korg digital keyboard 

(with headphones)

that has to be played standing up 

(for the time being),

but nonetheless 

(and I'm not really 

a materialistic person

I swear),

I'm pretty pumped.

(*Next up:  

a phone 

that takes better pictures 

than this one.)
