Music Box

Music boxes are designed for the sole purpose of making people feel good. They call us back to simpler times, lull us to sleep with their delicate tunes, even make us feel young again. All it takes is a few turns of the key. But behind that simple purpose lies a complex mechanism of interlocking cogs, gears, and wheels. Every chime a hammer strikes is also a signal that tune is winding down toward its end.

You fell in love with a particular music box at an antiques store, bought it on impulse, and took it home. Its melody is beautiful, but one day it suddenly stops playing.

1. How long after you bought the music box did it cease to play?
2. What do you think as you hold the broken music box in your hands?
