Retired

My son, who started me off with Squaresapce, lives with his family in China.  I made a little piece of music for them with Ableton Live.  The piece begins with a language lesson.  The teacher asks in Chinese   "What do you do?"  I answer in Chinese "I'm retired."  I think the piece has a decent, though erzatz Chinesey melody, but I can't do bridges, so I tried to stem the listener's boredom at the repetitions by using different timbres and percussion riffs.  Naturally, I called this piece "Retired."
