my first guitar was a
shoe box
and elastic bands..
(for machine heads i
don´t recall..)

i listened to giulani´s
study
on the box-
tales of the river bank
a ball..!

and in later years
(when i was out of my
box)
i came across his andante in
c major-opus 43,
no six-

i was a little boy once
more
(hammy hamster)
and i have it today somewhere
but better on the whole
it remains lost..
