Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta, Spanish
“Dear Resident of Apt. 205: Being New to the Building, We Understand That You May Not Be Familiar With the Condo Association’s Noise Ordinances. However, My Husband and I Both Have To Get Up Early For Work. As Such, We Ask That You Please Refrain From the Harp Playing Between the Hours of Midnight and 5 A.M. Or at the Very Least, Unplug Your Amp. Thanks!” Jill and Tim, Apt. 105, Date Unknown

“Evil” music’s an art.
Though she has a pure heart,
she needs less virtue, more virtuoso.
/// For her playing to reach this new level,
it must seem that in sin she could revel.
Not Debussy, instead
channel pure Motörhead,
showing sympathy now for the devil.
