I

.

There are no trip-wires here, love,

No pressure plates 

Laid, into the padded seat

Positioned, there, before the resting keys

.

Comprising the piano.

.

There are no pencil-fuses, no pins,

No pitfalls and no traps.

.

II

.

It’s just a kitchen, darling, 

That’s just a stereo 

And those are just sticks of incense.

.

When we light them, they won’t explode;

They’ll only just fill the hallways, here,

With fragrance, and with smoke.

.
