Problem 1
Answer and explanation
A possible original response to the musical pause in Before the Second Note: The first note leaves a space. I put my hurried words there, then take them back. A light hums. A folded program opens. The room has not forgotten us. The second note arrives and finds a place to land. Short early lines slow the action, while personifying the arriving note makes the ending feel less like a race. Another poem can work with different choices when it explains their connection to the credited source.
