Every evening, someone in the next flat practises the piano.
The same four measures repeat, stop, and begin again.
Sometimes the notes stumble. Sometimes they reach the end.
I have never met the pianist.
Still, I know when they are frustrated
and when they finally get it right.
We are strangers,
but I applaud quietly through the wall.
