Free Love Take Some

Proclaimed the poster stapled to the side of the old barn, its bold, bright colors in stark contrast to the faded paint of the cladding. The tear-off tabs hanging below the poster, each with a bright pink heart upon it, flutter in the hot desert wind. Some had already been taken, leaving empty gaps, like missing piano keys, a tune never to be played again.
