           the kitchen was doing something before you arrived


    0:00 - 0:30       stand still. locate the sound of the refrigerator.

               .......................................
               .     the sentence does not need to    .
               .     be remembered afterward.         .

    2:00   -----------------------------------------------   sit
           at the table, or on the floor, or on the counter

           turn off the light you did not turn on

                      the kitchen continues without you either way.


============================================================================
NOTES
- the glass of water remains. this is part of the score.
- if the performer cries during the piece, the piece accommodates it.
- if the performer laughs, the piece also accommodates that.
- there is no wrong performance. there is only the kitchen, before and after.
