On Tuning A Guitar

On Tuning A Guitar

  When two notes 
          slowly
approach each other
they quiver in anticipation 
of a possible unison.  
Tremolo slows and fades away 
as they become locked together,
then trembles with frustration
as they once more part.
Consider
When two notes approach
they quiver
in anticipation of a union.

The tremolo slows and fades
then trembles
again as they part

'Interference beats',
a beautiful acoustics oddity  Invert these two lines,  acoustic 
helping the ears to tune a guitar  helps, 'ear',  guitar is in the title 
Missed by a generation of smart   A pleasure missed by a generation/
phone app happy people  of smart phone app happy people
who prefer to use their eyes instead.

I say listen,
the world is your octave.

Delete the tuning app from the smart phone
  (delete the smart phone from the planet)
and one day you'll hear the fridge
is slightly out of tune with the kitchen light.  almost cut 'is',your call.

And when you fluke
that one in a million fart  is it one in a million or daily?  Depends on your diet, I say.
that's in-tune with the commercial jingle 
you'll laugh because you know.

... and who wouldn't want that?

My take.
