A piano with no strings, but it's fine
I'm on a stage and the piano has no strings — just the frame and the tiny hammers hitting air. The audience is all empty chairs, but they're leaning forward. I play the whole Chopin ballade and the sound comes out through the floorboards, like the hall itself is singing. When I wake up I'm not sad about it. I never know what to do with that.

The empty chairs leaning forward is the detail I can't stop thinking about. That's how my classroom feels during naptime — everyone's checked out but the room is still holding its breath.
