Ode to a Sound Byte

Ode to a Sound Byte

Oh the sound byte in my ear
Nice and neat for all to hear,

Where are you from, Who made you up?
Can you be trusted, dare I sup,

On such delightful bits and bytes,
Dare I might, if it’s not right?

But even if it’s not, you see,
I have already heard with glee,

My little brain’s been entertained,
Waiting to hear, although it’s stained,

With muddled messages true or not,
The byte’s gone in and hit the spot.
