Decimetring Along

 That old playground rhyme notwithstanding, I don’t recall even a single time that any of my teachers gave me a dirty look.
Quite possibly a failing of my own.

The duration of Music for the Un-Hip Hop is about six minutes and a half, so that is my goal for A Dance Floor for the Introverted. I have composed just a shade above two minutes thus far. At present the Fantasia on a Theme by Rahsaan Roland Kirk is at just about five minutes. I think I want to make it an eight-minute piece. We shall see. Good progress on both pieces today, and now they’ll rest for a couple of days.
