in one handy equation

Harmonic distortion, which is one way I am thinking of what I write (a cadence that might not be unusual but is unnatural for its diction, in writing that does not belong, its music as a sort of grotesque non-thing) may allow the listener to hear a pitch, or music, even when that does not exist. Let’s suppose then a poem is that interplay between meaninglessness and distorted music:

poem=music/noise^2 

So without noise the poem is undefined, which could be one way of thinking of the front page: its claim that poetry without noise is not art, has no poetic, and a poem cannot be completely uptodate, even if it can be a poem.
