Noise: Signals Static Individuals Are Unaware They Could Decipher Poem by Jonathan ROBIN

Noise: Signals Static Individuals Are Unaware They Could Decipher



Background static is held to be noise,
interference which often annoys,
yet all noise is not static
but code automatic,
signals atoms which seek equipoise.

Here is there, where perception employs
perspicacity spurning poor ploys,
though tao trip's tip erratic
seems, dreams reel to vatic
conclusion aback zen tortoise.

What some hear noise pollution to be
may steer others to cheer ecstacy
therefore channel perception
and filter conception
of subjective judgements at sea!

Decibels on the rise may disguise
signals which in their turn catalyze
basic instincts, defence
for survial, expense
well worth inconvenient cries.

Noise: an echo where energy toys
with a world whose half-life it destroys,
this while reader, ecstatic,
ventures smile enigmatic,
sees the light, contradictions enjoys.

Tympan tampon put on if excessive
or unpleasant some sounds seem, aggressive,
set mind free from restraints
from constraints and complaints,
inner ear hears in air-waves oppressive.

For pro, con, twins identical, boys,
maintain nothing's vain, on 'porpoise'
spins life's jest, though dramatic
seem vibrations erratic,
sense intense is imbed, reaches poise.
