there was only one option

i purposely
destroyed a stand up
cheap
piano once.
gave it the what for.
punches
and kicks.
jumped upon its keyboard.
then a hammer
to the casing.
pliers worked well
to pull out the guts of
wires
and computer chips,
things that made it play.
i cut the cords
and pushed it
all into a heap
in the middle of the floor,
then stood back and looked
at the shards of metal 
and plastic.
it felt good. a victory of sorts.
the other option
would have put me in
the slammer.
