I roved on a breeze, Searching for the sounds that snare, Ah! I’ve reached the seas! Music of the beach: In clement climes calypso Sounds riot, mad, hot. The kooky notes bounce, Calling limbs to undulate, Putting spark in them. It's celebration, Worship of life, love, laughter, Expressed in bold style. Limbs swing loose, the dance in zest protests the squat, staid sky, as bleak as a dirge. Another music: Waves crush, crashing over me, Sounds like maracas. Churning itself the Sea has enigmatic sounds Off the spectrum of Perception. Our ears, Too blunted by the loud world, Hears sea’s beauty not. Ocean's nocturne lost, Sea-creature symphonies that Elude our dulled ears. Too fine tuned for ads, telly, society's safe sounds which cut, sever us from the raw, primal sounds of the earth, the sounds which hide in shells, caves, seas. Man's sound is sullied In nature's eyes, we are just White noise, meaning nil. Roving home I stop, Thinking of ways to listen to her speak her soul.

White Noise
I roved on a breeze, Searching for the sounds that snare, Ah! I’ve reached the seas! Music of the beach: In clement climes calypso Sounds riot, mad, hot. The kooky notes bounce, Calling limbs to undulate, Putting spark in them. It's celebration, Worship of life, love, laughter, Expressed in bold style. Limbs swing loose, the dance in zest protests the squat, staid sky, as bleak as a dirge. Another music: Waves crush, crashing over me, Sounds like maracas. Churning itself the Sea has enigmatic sounds Off the spectrum of Perception. Our ears, Too blunted by the loud world, Hears sea’s beauty not. Ocean's nocturne lost, Sea-creature symphonies that Elude our dulled ears. Too fine tuned for ads, telly, society's safe sounds which cut, sever us from the raw, primal sounds of the earth, the sounds which hide in shells, caves, seas. Man's sound is sullied In nature's eyes, we are just White noise, meaning nil. Roving home I stop, Thinking of ways to listen to her speak her soul.
