That is one way of looking at it for sure, but I still like my interpretation better. And that is part of the magic and power of art and poetry: we can each "see" it a little differently, influenced by our own attitudes, sensibilities, and desires. Perhaps Joni had a double entendre in mind; actually most likely it's not a "perhaps", but more like a certainty that she she had at least a double entendre in mind!

The wood of the piano and the keys are on the outside. The wires and hammers are on the inside. The internal emotional workings are concealed by the casing of the piano. Just as our bodies are a concealment for our inner emotional workings. Lots of Joni, Shari ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2012 #1163 ****************************** ------- To post messages to the list, sendtojoni@smoe.org.
